Check wastegate diaphragm as well. They get weak and perish over time and allow boost air to the 
back of the gate keeping the gate closed. My old MC would show 1.9 bar with the limit being 1.6. It 
didn't perform sluggish or misfire, but the original ECU would just cut the fuel making for some 
interesting overtaking.
