Found my boost problem. Stock n75 valves suck...
We adjusted my friend's mbc on his saab to hit 19psi and then put it in place of my n75. Perfect, pushes 19psi no matter what rpm, gear, etc.
I think I'm going to buy a Forge Motorsports MBC... Unless anyone suggests a different one?

bought a Forge UNOS mbc. works decent. Holds 19psi no problem. Mid throttle response kind of sucks though... working on ironing it out. Just bought a ross-tech hex can usb cable so I can run vag-com.

19psi is nuts in this car. I don't know how some of you (ahem, Cris) run 20+ with BT 20v's lol.
My friend has a decent camera so we went on a cruise on Sunday and he took a few pics for me.
He's by no means a photographer, but I thought a few came out pretty well for not photoshopping anything.
a few highlights:
