where does the waste gate get its boost signal from? if you are pulling it from the manifold it may be causing it. i know everyone flames the delta gate, but for 2 years mine stayed locked at 7 psi never crept, or spiked. make sure you have solid connections, try to catch the boost signal off of the turbo.
but to answer your question, no it isnt normal. and at 10 psi in 4th gear, thats where you will do most of your damage.
