wastegate malfunction

[superdewey58]

my wastegate is supposed to hold at 8psi. it goes to twelve. so i think i need a new spring. but i was also thinking what if the dumptube is to restrictive? could this be a likely cause. its made out of stock exhaust tips so the 90's are down turns not elbos. im leasing towards the spring b/c it goes right past 8 its not like fast to 8 then creep up it just goes right past it?
