CT20b boost Q Options

[Azncelica]

I've got my 3rd gen 3sgte swap done this past year. What I've notices, Turbo don't go full boost until about 3700 rpm. Pulls hard up to redline. I had a buddy with another ct20b turbo. I'd installed on my car. Test drive, It kicks in about 2500 rpm, but notices lack of power past 5k. I'm starting to wonder if my turbo was already mod. or normal.
I also dyno my car. 3 base pulled at 14ps, cheap ebay boost control wasn't holding anymore. I dyno in at about 230hp, miss place actual dyno sheet. For sure it was 230hp or more. Just also wondering where everyone else dyno their car? Only thing that is upgraded is, Went front mount intercooler, Aftermarket down pipe, cat deleted. Full 3' exhaust. and aftermarket radatior. Every else is all stock. Last Also Took my car to the track for the first time. My best time was 14.4 at 99 mph, fastest trap speed was at 103 mph but slower time. No traction, tires spins 1-3rd, finally have traction after 60ft mark. Planing on going with bigger turbo set up this year. Just want to a feel of what everyone have done and try so I can related that to my choices of set up I would like to do. I want my $$$$$$$ count on what ever I do. As we all know, everything for 3sgte and celica isn't cheap.

tweak'd 1994 celica ST
1999-2000 4th gen 3sgte
ct 20b turbo
26x6x3 FMIC
2.5 catless exhaust
2.25 downpipe
ran on a dynojet@ 15-17psi

btw...the torque is supposed to be rated around 280ft lbs but by that run my clutch was slipping

this is mine when i did a dyno run one day. i havent driven my 3s with the ct20b in a while, but i DO remember it spooling VERY quickly (about 2500 rpm) but my redline was always early, i never got the chance to really learn/tinker with it much.
