overboost

I just installed all my upgrades, which are:Walbro fuel pump/sti injectors/Turboxs fmic/Turboxs UTEC/Turboxs shorty intake/up-pipe/HKS down-pipe/Greddy EVO cat-back/APS sr30 turbo. I installed the base maps found on the Turboxs website. The only real difference I can see is, they design their stage 4 base map using a IHI VF30/34 turbocharger. If you put my APS turbo and a VF34 side by side, the APS has a much bigger compressor and housing. I'm having a problem with overboosting and fuel being cut. When installing the UTEC, you must also install the provided ABC. I'm told it works like a "pop-up turkey timer" to bleed off excess boost. Whether the screw on the ABC is all the way in or all the way out, it still overboosts. I just wanted to know if anyone else has had a similar problem and how to fix it.
