If you are using the stock EBCS/configuration then yes... a missing pill will reduce your boost but you should still be above 10 PSI regardless.
Does the boost never go above 11 PSI or does it start higher and then taper down to 11 psi?
One option is to purchase a 3 port EBCS but that will require some tuning to get it to work right.
As raven suggests it could also be that the ECU is forcing you to a lower boost but I would agree first that a missing pill is your first concern. Either way a log will confirm it. You can just monitor Wast Gate Duty from your AccessPort or RomRaider and if it is anything above 0% during boost then you need a pill. If it is 0% during boost then you have problems.

Thank you sir! Yes waste gate was 0% and no I was never above 11 psi so far, but is steady at lower psi, I will jimmy up a pill here and see if this helps .040 welding electrode tip and I will enlarge this slightly debur and install and hopefully post my findings

If the waste gate was 0% that means the ECU was pulling boost. This means that something is really wrong. I don't mean to be an alarmist but this is usually a major thing and should not go unchecked.
I need to see a log immediately.

Check out this thread on what to log... https://www.igotasti.com/vBforum/threads/213-Newbies-Guide-to-Logging
I prefer the general log parameters listed here. Also if you could upload the log files to a google drive that would be prefered. Here is my public folder... https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B-3NCbhq0QiqdEdQUE0xMEJTWkU&usp=sharing
It sounds like the pill made an impact but it didn't do enough.

Well same result with old actuator, not hitting high boost, but still spools well and holds well at lower boost, oil consumption down somewhat, however the old motor is seeing her day I fear. With that I hope to save up and rebuild eventually thx for all the help and info you all are great enthusiasts
