boost ?

guys have told me anything over 28lbs on a stock turbo is a waste.something about it just raising egts and its just hot air going through the turbo,hopefully this makes since.i curently have my wastegate disconnected and am reaching 44lbs on stock turbo,but my egts are through the roof,just trying to lower the egts

A bigger turbo would fix the egt problem.
