Default Overboost problem!!!

I have a d16y8 with greddy kit
450 dsm injectors
255lb pump
vafc hack

problem im having is that the boost gauge usually goes to .5 bar and stops, now its going to about 1-1.2 on full throttle....so i think its the internal wastegate being stuck

i used an air compressor and hooked a hose up to the wastegate actuator and it moves but only a really really really little bit, should i be able to move it by hand?

looking for ideas, overboost bad mmmmmkay

Check your vaccum lines - mine was overboosting because the vaccum line was leaking.
