Default getting a boost increase when vtec hits

ok i have an SSauto manifold and t3t4 turbo, TIAL wastegate, 2.5" IC piping, greddy type-s BOV, when i first put it 2gether, it would stay at 6lbs all the time, then i blew a hole in one of my home depot couplings so i ordered silicone reinforced ones, and now it stays at 6lbs til vtec hits then climbs to 10-11 lbs, and it has a 6lb spring in it. if anyone has ANY idea what this could be, please help me, ive checked all the hoses, pipes, fittings, everything i can think of, only other thing would be to switch wastegates

What size wastegate? Maybe it's not flowing enough. Do you have the dumptube routed to the atmosphere?
