Still not getting full boost!

my 86 turbo is still only getting 6-7psi of boost. I have replaced the vacuum lines, and pretty much anything rubber under the intake, and did the venturi delete and deleted that metal thing. I was going to replace the cv, but the one in there looked better than the one I bought (the plastic ring was still white even. Had to have been replaced recently). All of this gives me a better idle, but still the same boost issue. If i clamp the wastegate hose, I can easily get full boost, but running regular, I will boost nice until 6-7psi and then it just stops, and even falls off sometimes. My turbo spun nice, and i'm pretty sure it has no play. I wiggled it while the intake is off. Now I don't know what to do!
