Is my wg 2 small? This is what I have, 99ls1 t76 with 38mm turbo smart wg. On the dyno it put down 464rwhp, at sea level 100 deg weather and 10psi. After I got it back home, its boosting to 15psi 
on the street and killing my timing and falling on its face. I have swap to a 5 psi spring, and the same thing happend, does this now mean my wg is to small??

I run a 38mm ultra & I can get it down to 10 lbs with a tc 78. But maybe my plumbing is more optimal?
If it was non loading it is normal for the car to make more boost on the street(only a few pounds usually) and that could be amplified by the fact the gate is too small or placement of it is not optimal.
