Other than that, it completely baffles us that the MBC wasn't doing anything useful after giving roughly 7 full turns. Boost held steady at 5 PSI, but man it boring in 3rd gear. I didn't see full 5 PSI until 5k or so regardless of the MBC setting.

BTW, what does this mean? I'm loading the car under boost in 3rd gear to about 4k, quickly let go, and the revs jump to 5-6k as the BOVs open up.
Have you checked the BOV's? One could be stuck open just a bit. I had a issue with mine where one was stuck just a little bit open. It was causing some weird issues. Took mine apart and cleaned and lubed them and it was good to go.
