It could be a problem with your flow design.

Where are you taking the boost measurement from?

With the angles the air has to make to get into the intake port (a 360 degree turn) it's no wonder you don't get a lot of boost. It might be more effective (money wise at least) to redesign your intake instead of just getting a bigger hammer.

One idea I was bouncing around in my skull it to flip the blower upside down, keeping the pulley in the same location. This would place the body of the blower more centered, and direct the air upwards. That's 180 degrees less turn it has to make. Then build a plenum above the blower, of equal displacement to the engine, 2.2L (?) in this case. It should be the shape of a football, with the points of the ball ending at the runner connection. Half of a football (cut point to point) might work as well. That would involve the least amount of change to your intake system.

Yeah, the fan shroud is in the way. It was just an idea.
