What a useless reply. Boost controllers arent the bandaid for a bad hose. Try again.

Re: (Civicman86)
What manifold are you using? The SSAC manifold and a few others have issues with boost creep. If you are making 7 PSI at 3/4 throttle and only overboost at full throttle, I would imagine it was the wastegate not passing enough gas, which can usually be traced to the manifold.
I know you said that it was boosting fine before.... But, "was goin down the by-pass dropped it to 3rd and stomped it and boost shot to 15psi"... This might be the first time you boosted near redline. I know I don't mash my throttle unless I have a friend in the car to egg me on.
3rd gear above 5000 RPM is where your engine is going to produce the most exhaust, because it is at very high load.

yes, this will cause the issue you are having.
