Won't boost past 1psi

Won't boost past 1psi
So me and my tuner took the car out to do some street tuning and when we boost on it it cuts out after 1psi the stock map is reading but no boost. My tuner thought the map sensor was bad so we put a different stock one on it and same results. Will read 1psi then cuts out.
I thought maybe the tb gasket is causing a problem because it's the gasket that Edelbrock sends with their manifold and it dosent have all the slots in it like the Oem one does.. I can't really afford an omni or hondata map rite now and just want it to boost lol. I think im going to try swapping the gaskets and try again tomorrow, but I don't know if it's worth the work since the map is reading... Any suggestions or ideas?

my tuner knows what he's doing... And no I'm not the tuner. No boost protections are on which was checked numerous times also why we are confused as to why it's not boosting, And I'm using smanager
My setup is b16head on gsr block fully built Edelbrock Im with stock tb forward facing turbo mani with twin tial wastegates turbo smart manual boost controller

Rite all sensors are reading fine though and we changed hot and cold boost cut so it won't cut boost. Unchecked the engine code boost cut I just can't figure out why unless my map is bad and my other map maybe a d series and idk how much psi they will read. I can't find theft protection either

Yea s300 sorry.. Valet settings are disabled, and I can't believe both my map sensors at bad but, could that be causing the cut? It's ignition cutting for sure because the tach drops when it cuts if that helps I really don't get why it's boost cutting. I didn't know if there was a "theft protection" settings menu or something I knew my valet was off. I'm going to take off my map and blow into it to see how high it will read to rule it out. I'm also throwing code 6 but like I said I have boost cut if cel is on, off.
Update
Downloaded a tune from the vault and now it's only fuel cutting and not ignition cutting. Under rev limits only fuel is to be cut when it hits the limiter buy my rev limits are set high enough and is only cutting at boost. I also blew into my map and it read 1.8-2psi so my map is functioning

Re: Won't boost past 1psi
pretty sure the speed sensor is working ill check here in a minuet. and yea there are values in the positive boost section. im struggling to get the fuel maps uploaded, its telling me that they are invalid files but im going to try and get that done.

I will do that will have to take pics with my phone I don't have wifi rn.. Although I'm thinking it is a sensor or something because iv downloaded tunes and they do the same thing.. I also just bought an omni 4 bar hope it changes things

Yea well aware, the car isn't even tuned yet because it won't boost. I'm not a complete noob at this I'm just can't figure this problem out, cause I try not to post unless I have to. here is my boost table tho. And my speed sensor is reading fine on my laptop

I fail to see how it's relevant to my problem when I can just use my phone and take pics instead of driving 10 min to USE wifi.. And boom pics have already been posted... So I still fail to see the relevance
