I'm glad some1 said the bypass valve. That's the first thing I'd think of....
the valve might be a bit dirty, which causes it to leak a bit. Also, check your throttle body. disconnect the intake and watch as a buddy pops it down WOT as quick as possible. should see it open a full 90*
if you know any1 else with an SC, i'd say swap boost gauges to find out if it's the gauge or the car. Do you have an exhaust leak anywhere? I got one recently, I have to make a video tomorrow it's hilariously and obnoxiously loud and whebn I punched it, it was super slow to redline and I maxed at 10PSI (normally get to 17PSI - stock exhaust w/ intake and OTTP Stage 2)
