Default Cant Adjust Boost

I have a deltagate wastegate that is supposed to be 7 - 9 psi. Screw is all the way down, but my gauge says that it at 9 psi, that is with the intercooler. How can I lower my boost? I have a rev hard stage 2 on a b16 in a 92 hatch. Here is a link to how it looks like. In other pictures, the wastegate points to the left and mine points up. It looks like it is installed right. Any help on how to lower my boost will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

The wastegate is supposed to boost minimum 7-9psi...you are having 9psi, so what is the problem?

I would check if there is another wg spring available. hm, not sure about this, but is it possible to give some washers on the spring, that the spring is more tight?

If you want to lower the boost, the screw needs to be backed all the way out.
