Default Boosting too high

I just installed a greddy kit and everything looks good all the hose and line are plugged in, but when i floor it the boost gauge goes all the way up to like 15, 20 psi. What is wrong cause i never messed with the factory boost level.

could be a bad wastgate, or the adjustment of the wastegate is off..

it is either something is wrong with the wastegate or what i reall thing happened is one of the lines has been ran wrong. Just double check the wastegate lines.
