Really easy,just make 2 turns clockwise and you should get 0.1 more boost

Had FVD, DV, and dropin, was seeing 1.0-1.1 in all gears. Now w/ dual intake, Y-pipe, TB, plenum and IC's seeing 0.9 max, told that was normal. Smoke test was done no leaks.

I see 0.8 bar up to second gear, up to 1.3 bar as of 3rd gear, as of which the car runs like a raped ape. I do have zero clearance hybrids (16/24).
My buddies in normally aspirated GT3s (who see me dissapear in the distance ) tell me there's black puffs of smoke when I hit it hard. Car is definitely running too rich.

Why .8 in 2nd and 1.3 in 3rd.? If your turbo is big, it would be reasonable. Might worth to check. Something is not right.

I didn't adjust the wastegates,but if I were you I would turn your bolts from the wastegates 2 turns clockwise and see what happens.
