Low boost, advice please?

Hello,
working with my new 900T8 `87.
The boost will not go near the read zone, it is missing about 4 mm to reach the red.
Had the engine at idle took off the vacum line going to the pressure tansducer/overboost switch/boost guage. Added pressure with a pump on this vacume line and the solenoide started chattering when the boost was about 1mm into yellow - Is`t this wrong, too early???
Normal 1:The overboost switch shut off the engine at about 1mm into red.
Normal 2: The solenoid started chattering when I used a hammer on the engine block to simulate knocking.
What now, can I tweak the APC to get more boost?
