Default Boost problem

I've got a 2000 GSR with a Hondata, T3/t04e, Tubular mani, tial gate, and Blitz sbc-id controller.
For some reason I can't co over 4.5 psi when I'm lucky. Usualy it's 2.5 - 4. I made sure my boost controler settings were right, 2 shops checked it's install as well. I thought it might be me BOV opening under boost as it seemed to on the dyno so I tightened it almost all the way and no change, although it dodn't make the valve any quieter. I turned my boost controller to internal WG mode and it went up to 5.5psi once but slowly, any ideas? The car Is tuned for 8.5psi and I want to run it!
