Did you get a receipt? 27k seems steep considering some of the options included are expensive problems.

I'll crank mine to around 28psi if I'm racing around, but I DD it on 24psi. I'm running a stock turbo right now.
That happened to me as well and I hit 31 psi as logged by my JDM map sensor tapering to 22psi with very basic bolt ons on the VIII turbo. With a lot more bolt ons it would be higher and definitely sounds like what is happening here (changing MBC and it not doing anything). I was using ECU controlled boost at the time and the ECU was saying the wastegate is wide open but yet the boost continued to rise.

+1 to the folks saying take it to a shop that deals with Evos. Some of those other "turbo" shops workaround issues that an Evo shop would understand how to fix.

$26,700 for a 06 MR with 50k miles is a good price I think. I am taking the car tommorow morning to get it fixed hopefully these guys know wtf they doing.

I would also suggest looking at the boost lines running to the MBC. I had my boost lines running to my 3 port mixed up one time and the car was spiking to 35+psi because the wastegate wasn't opening. This was on a stock 9 turbo BTW
