Default new tail 38mm wastegate help

ok so i bought a cheap turbo xs-power turbo kit. i know im stupid. but i decided to get name brand stuff now. so i ordered a blog turbo mani and tial 38mm wastegate. when i got the wastegate and everything put on i ran the car w/o a boost controller and hit 15psi. i ordered the wastegate with a 7psi spring. when i put the boost controller on. i did what the paper said (instructions) for the vacuum lines. the instrcutions said that it was on its lowest setting. well im still hitting 15psi. i havent had time to adjust the controller any. but i was wondering if anyone can help me out....thanks and please no bashing

yeah check the spring color. also completely unhook the boost controller and see what psi you are getting. eliminates any installation error.
