Have been experiencing intermittent overboost problems before and after modifications.

Have been told that there is restrictors that can be changed/adjusted to increase or decrease boost.

Any suggestions please?

Have you tried cleaning your Boost Control Solenoid - these can apparently get contaminated with oil if your levels are too high.

Brake cleaner spray blown through the vacuum pipe into the solenoid and then a quick drive before it evaporates is reported to solve the problem.

Can't hurt anyway...
