Not Holding Boost

Hello again. I need a little wisdom here. I have a '90 MK3 Turbo. The car is not holding boost. If I accellerate slowly, I get a stuttering or chattering a little above 2lbs. If driven hard, it holds boost. It almost felt like clutch chatter, but it only does it a little into boost at any RPM range. Could it be the wastegate? Stock Turbo, 142000 miles.
