Nothing at all has changed besides the exhaust? Did you remove the manifold/turbo for some reason? Possible exhaust or boost leak somewhere...

Im assuming before the exhaust you were boosting passed 10psi and tuned for it? Did you retune after the exhaust install?

Give us as much info as you can

where are you pulling your wastegate signal from. i was having the same problem when i was sourcing the signal from the intake manifold. switched to the before the throttle body and problem solved.
