Boost problem..

So i went to the track this weekend and wanted to throw in some 100oct and up the boost a bit..
So i get to the track throw in 5 gallons of 100oct and pop the hood. I say to myself ill turn the Boost control 1 full turn and test it out..
Wait i only had half a turn and it was maxed out.. And when i did turn it that half of a turn i lost .05 bar of boost.
So i try putting it back where it was, half turn back and its still the same, down .05 bar...
The boost control is a forge unos and daily driving boost is 1.5bar in 4th and 5th dropping to 1.4bar
Now when on the freeway back from the track i was in 4th right at 3k. Hit it and hold 1.5 like normal. But if im at like 4k rpms sometimes it will spike 1.6 and drop to 1.5 instantly.
Why can't i get more boost out of her? and why is my boost control already almost maxed to get 1.5bar.

Ask forge... maybe they have a different spring for higher boost.

that forge unit should be able to click over 100 times and i think there are about 6-7 clicks per revolution. and i also believe that it can modify your boost to hold up to 30+psi.

well i never backed it off all the way.. But i did turn it 6 or 7 times down and ran and it was holding almost no boost. Like 1bar.
Then i turned it all the way back up and it hits 1.5bar.
