Are my turbo veins stuck open?

When the truck is cold i'll get huge amounts of boost (35-40) and my foot isn't even into it. When the truck is warm it handles like a champ. Is that stuck turbo veins? How long can I leave it like that? I don't really have time to clean it because I'm working all the time.

Definitely sticking vanes. Don't let it boost that high. Do it ASAP, if not sooner.

Just ditched my stock turbo and did a Powermax Stage 1 turbo upgrade... VERY impressed!
