What do you have plumbed?

You should have boost reference to the side port of the gate, or it will only open based on exhaust pressure and not boost pressure.

Hook the boost reference straight to the bottom of the gate, that will rule out any electronics. Leave the top vented. If you're still overboosting, something is sticking or you have a boost leak between your boost reference and the gate.

Where in that log are you overboosting? You are constantly under target in that log.

As stated, It's not overboosting, it's underboosting, your below target. You probably have a boost leak.

A lot of the wastegates have been sold out even on the Speed Tech website that was probably the only one available lol.

No Mate. You are under target. You are reading the target and not the actual boost.

Looking at your log there is probably no leak but just PID at its limit due to the too low base.

Increase your Duty Cycle.

Check out Black Sheep industries. Quality made and cheaper than any other name brand.
