Default I gots a problem... I think.. 25psi w/ Stage 3. (2nd and 3rd)
I have never got this much boost before, it is a little chilly today 5 degrees celsius, but I am a little worried. Could it be the N75? Anything else?
I do have a VAG, but have no idea on what to look for, or which logs to take. (VAG Noob)
Any help?

check the hoses to and from the N75 for kinks

Default 2nd that...
i had the same problem when i first installed the kit. Hitting the pin on my 25psi gauge. I smoothed out the hoses and it was back to normal.

Default or leaks.
Kinks or leaks in those lines will cause the wastegate to stay shut more then it should.

Default Isn't that the issue?
A kink, leak or a bad N75 valve will keep from opening the wastegate correctly.
