Not necessarily...
Another tip...
Your wastegate (actuator) vacuum source location can also influence boost.
Closer to the turbo (compressor) = faster reaction of wastegate = slower boost
Farther away from turbo (compresser) / closer to engine = slower reaction of wastegate = faster boost
Boost builds from the turbo (compressor) then into hot-side IC pipes then intercooler then cold-side IC pipes then throttle body / intake manifold...
The later you open the wastegate, the faster boost will build in the turbo.
