Boost and Wastegate question?

Ok first of all I searched through like 4 pages of threads before I gave up and just posted this.

I have a 07 subaru wrx with TBE & a Cobb AP short ram intake with a Stage 2 tune.

I've noticed my boost is not exactly hitting my target boost through 1st and 2nd gear, but its pretty close. Yet when I hit 3rd gear I don't even come close to the target boost. Can this be a cause of the wastegate arm needing to be adjusted or something else? I've read where a lot of people don't hit their target boost and thats why they adjust their wastegate arm, but couldn't really find anything where they were close to it in 1st and 2nd and then not the rest of the gears. Don't really want to go adjusting anything or changing anything until I know for sure.
