you get it up by minipulating the wastegate. let it see less vaccume thus creating more boost. if you vent off the vaccume then the wg see's less vaccume thus not opening all the way thus creating more boost. read the manual that came with ur manual boost controler.

If you have a manual boost controller yoiu should be able to get at least 10psi out of the gate. If you are not getting this you either have it hooked up wrong or the boost controller is broken. I use a Greddy Profec B and it is a great unit, it's very easy to hook up and is very easy to operate.
