There is no hole in it just a tiny dent.
So the wastegate actuator was in the way of the lower I/C pipe. Tells me the actuator bracket is probably bent and misaligning the actuator rod.

the actuator body is parallel to the lower pipe where it comes off the turbo.
actuator problem would explain the over boosting because it is binding and the wastegate can't open properly to relieve the pressure.

Here is where they come close to each other. A little hard to get the black pipe )stock) to show in the picture.

MR BOV is installed, The car felt really good. Give me a few days to set the MBC and do some testing. What gear do you set the MBC in 4th? 3rd? 5th? should you floor it when setting the boost? My car seems to do better when I dont floor it. like 7/8ths the way down. Last thing is I havent had the car tuned for the new FMIC how much dose that matter?

Again MODS/gurus thanks for the help. I havent checked the "how to" for setting the boost, but I sure many people have different opnions.
