Boost Spike

hi guys
my evo x a 2009 model sst
recently had a brand new ecu coded in with no tune, for some reason my boost is going up to 25psi and then starting to studder.

before my ecu was damage from a bench i was getting this boost problem when i change the stock actuator, but since then i have gone back stock

any reason this boost spike is taking place

Was the actuator installed correctly? Its not stuck or adjusted right? I'd also check out your hose configuration.

You can take it to a tuner and see what they say. I will tell you my Stock 15 MR spikes to 27psi for a split second and then goes back to like 22-23psi when I mash the throttle from a stop. Another buddy of mine who had an 09 MR before his current GSR saw as high as 28psi on a stock tune and set up.
