Does the engine rev as quickly and hard as when the engine was NA?
If not I wouldnt go blamming your restrictive exhaust, it could be that the restriction is now on the intake side i.e. carby or the engine is not nearly getting enough fuel, I assume it is jetted stock still?

The boost is not read from the turbo but from the manifold.
You will get the same boost reading from the turbo as the manifold. The only time this changes is if you have a restriction between the turbo and the manifold such as an intercooler.
Why dont you put another slight restriction in the exhaust, say block off the tailpipe and test again. If 10psi is not meet either the restriction is most likely on the inlet side or your turbo is fuxored, timing is out, not enough fuel etc.
