an internal wg has a little flapper inside the 'wg housing'that connecst to teh hotside of the turd. well, when that flapper is closed over the hole, the wg is closed, when the actuator opens the flapper at a certain psi, boost is regulated b/c the wg is open. instead of a big clunky vacuum/boost operated actuator, a spring holds the flapper shut, when enough boost is built, the spring won't be able to hold it any more and it will open, this can be adjusted by making the spring tighter (raising boost) and holding the flapper closed with more tension, or vice versa to lower boost.....

accually kyle, im gonna make a thread with dr boost.-im just waiting on him now. it will be entitled "what it takes to be boosted"-not paid for by mom and dad.

be on the look-out in the FI section. im not afraid of who will flame it. im proud of my set-up. my boosted car is just as good as any of those other ***** $3000 kits.
