check vacume hoses. Sounds like you're freeboosting, but mine used to cut at about 17psi not 20...

Faulty gauge?

It should cut at 15psi (if its above this then your guage is most likely wrong, cheap ones often are). If you are actually boosting 20psi then you must have a boost cut defender or a modified ecu.

As for the overboost as above check your vacuum hoses.
