Have you done an actual boost leak test? Check your vaccum lines too.

First you need to make a "boost leak tester" or purchase one...either way. They are pretty easy to make though...use a coupler(that's the size of the turbo inlet) put in a cap on the end of it(pvc seems to use the best)...put a bike air valve in the cap. Use clamps to seal in the air. Cap off the right side of the valve cover...fill air in system(through a compressor) through the valve on the boost leak tester...listen for leaks. Make sure car is off or if you have the rice plate(mopar bov) have the car in the 2nd position.
