Wastegate and Boost questions

I'm concerned about base boost being too high. I disconnected APC solenoid power and read 5 PSI at 3000RPM going up a hill in 3rd gear (auto). Content with that reading I headed home, punched it and it spiked to 10 PSI. Does this make my base boost 5 or 10?
Tried to back off base boost but the Wastegate actuator rod is frozen on the thread. (Vice grip on rod near the nut, failed to turn the 'paddle' with a pliers). If I'm at 5 I'm OK, but if it's 10 I have to cut it back. If I can't adjust how tough is it to replace?
Car running fine except for .5 second hesitation/shudder just before boost kicks in when re-accellerating at about 60MPH (what is that?). Boost doesn't stay on as long as I'd like, though, (it is addictive) so it could be cutting off.
