Default Overboosting HELP !!!!! :-(

Hi guys! my 2001 bugeye has been overboosting, basically it's just running up to 1.3 - 1.4 bar when should be 0.8 ! Ive replaced the actuator and now boost solenoid controller and still doing the same. Mechanic says no pipe work leaks. On the boost solenoid should the right hand connector be connected to anything as I just have a short pipe leading to nothing but can't see any other loose pipes! :-/

Any other mods? Silicone inlet, de-cat, up-pipe or a remap?
