I think a stock evo 5/6 should be around 18-20 psi. Im just guessing though from reading their hp and torque numbers.

If it has a boost controller then why don't you just disconnect it and see what the wastegate pressure is? Don't run anything higher than that without some kind of engine management.

Then maybe invest in a decent boost gauge and leave it that way until you get some engine management.
