Default holding back

hi people i have a subaru wrx jdm turbo my95
all was well with the car until the other day i had a play with a bike all was running well. took the car home next day i took it out and when i opened it up the boost gauge was saying the car was giving full boost but i could fell the car holding back and not giving full boost throught the car.i have looked at the boost pipes but all seems ok any ideas what it could be before i start ripping it apart tryin to find the problem..the car has simtek on it aswell.it does not seem as bad if i slowly bring the power in say half throttle but as soon as i open it up you can feel the car holding back even tho the boost gauge says full boost. the acutator does not really have any play in it from what i can feel. i did take the dump valve apart the other night to check the insides ect but i did grease it all up ect when i put it back together any advice would be much welcome kind regards ben

i would take it back to Alan jeffery and get them to have a look over it, it could be something simple and with them working on the car they will already know it.
