Over Boost?!

Over Boost?!
well i've had my 98 ram 3500 CYD for about two months now and i've done alot of reserch on them for quite some time now.
i've noticed that the max boost i've ever encountered has been around 18-19 psi. i ran the truck pretty hard about a week ago and now my max boost pressure has jumped to about 23-24 psi when under load.
my reserch tells me that i HAD normal boost press. at 18.
so is the wastegate not working properly? i hav'nt noticed any difference in acceleration (better or worse) .
is the wastgate electronicly controlled?
any ideas on why all of a sudden i have more boost and is there any chance of damaging anything because of this?
thanks for your input
