Default Low boost?

Hey guys i have a couple questions about my truck.

The first is whey am i only building 27psi of boost? i have the fuel screw turned up, its at run away. the fuel pin has the deepest part forward. and no AFC spring. It also has the 21cm housing.

I have a 58mm S300, where can you buy bigger compressor wheels and housings for these?

Thanks

what are you running for a lift pump?? bigger turbo isnt going to make more boost if you dont have the fuel to burn!!

yes stock filter(for now).
stock lines.
wanted it to smoke back before i turned it up and never put it back in, but i probably will to see if it will make it run better at lower rpms.
it smokes pretty good until the turbo lights(about 15-18psi, i'm guessing about 2200-2500 rpms?)
