12psi drop is excessive. That's actually lower than standard was gate...i believe it should be a min of 14psi. It might be your wastegate opening early and dumping boost. Might be a good time for a forge 9 wg. check your bov to.

^+1 Wastegate and bov. You can get an 18 psi gate for around $100

Is your intake snorkel firmly held down by the clips? If not, then there is a problem.
