Message Yeah, they're pretty low. I originally calibrated the wategates to start opening at about 10psi and I couldn't boost more than 6.5 because the exhaust gasses just forced the wastegate open once they got warm (even if the wastegate lines were disconnected). While everything was still assembled (glad I don't have heat shields anymore), I shortened the actuator rods a bit and actually ran out of adjustment. I'll probably end up having to remove the acutators and do some surgery, becuase I doubt a boost controller will dump air quick enough to hit ~23lbs (once I have the supporting mods).
