Stock Turbo Boost Varies With Air Temp

I,ve noticed that my boost will vary from day to day according to the air temp. I,m currently using a RJC boost controller which seems to work pretty good. The turbo is in good shape, no shaft end play. I,ts just that some days I cannot get over 20lbs of boost even if I disconnect the wastegate actuator. Is this problem characteristic of a stock turbo?

Thanks Mike Ingram
