Default logged turbo back presure at 32 psi boost!

was out testing last weekend, i run a b16a, stock head,cams,and valves, t3 60-1 turbo charger, tial 38mm waste gate, and at 32psi boost its making close to 60psi presure in the exhaust manifold!
the back presures not bad until it goes over 7500rpm then it just climbs!
the turbocharger runs a 0.63 a/r turbine and a stg3 t3 turbine wheel....
any suggestion on how to reduce back pressure with out effecting my power band!
rev limiter is set at 9300rpm.

a better flowing exhaust manifold, larger turbine housing, and possibly a larger or better flowing exhaust

If you're not way out in left field, a 5 bar map sensor will usually do the trick. If you max out a 5 bar map on the exhaust then you just know you need a bigger turbo. lol

How are you guys sourcing the pressure from the exhaust?! I would assume your standard vacuum line wouldn't do much good for this lol.

Run about 1' of steel or copper hard line with a couple coils in it, then you can mount the map sensor at the end of it.
