Are you getting 23 psi from the attitude monitor or thru a real gauge? Sounds like you need to send it to edge and get it checked over... Mine made mt truck run like poo because some wires pulled out of the monitor

Ive had my wastegate pluged where people used to put reducers on. $1.02 @Lowes in the plumbing secting. Ive had it on there for probably 60+, and my truck has 116k. No boost goes out.
