Default uberchip question....im running lean on a small turbo !!!

heres my problem...once i reach 3lbs of boost the thing bogs out. as im spooling it goes very lean. now im setup for dsm 450s which im running with everything wired up correctly. i have 40psi on the fpr. what do u suggest i bump it up to in order to acheive anything decent. oh and its a saab t3 on a b16 w/gsr cams, 2.5 cat and exhaust. im thinking around 50psi maybe? im hoping to get a new chip burned soon but until then what should i do...and i know dont boost it but since its small it starts spooling at 3k. thanks

oh i know this...but when i drive its either half throttle to 3k or like no throttle at all which takes forever to get moving. plus to get to the tuner it is a 3 hour drive at 4k...any little throttle makes it start to spool. anyone else have suggestions

your turbo is spooling to fast and therefore you run lean througout the powerband. same thing happen to my cousin
