What kind of wastegate are you using? SSAC or derivative there of?

If that was a realitively stock engine (aka, stock control) there is only a few things it can possibly be:

1. Leak at exhaust port(s) on the head
2. Leak where the hot pipe bolt to the headers
3. Leak where the turbo bolts to the up pipe

4. Bad SSAC Turbo (used to be very common)
5. Stuck wastegate/bad wastegate (still very common for SSAC)

6. Boost leak in your relatively short intake piping. That looks like an Ebay BOV as well, so that could be "flopping" open with boost as well.

Sidenote:

Please tell me you have a restrictor installed in that oil feed line!
