If i remember correctly reading somewhere, the monsta manifolds have a design flaw where as the waste is below the turbo and heads further southward and just no air goes there and builds up, so if no air goes there well there is nothing to vent and nothing to stop the turbo spinning faster. but i could be wrong, don't quote me on this one

with the standard crossover pipe and a standard nissan t3.. should run 8 or 10psi if im correct ? the wastegate on ur turbo has got a 14.9psi spring in it ...maybe thats why ur way over 14psi and using the crossover pipe... i could be wrong but i guess im in the rightline
