The reason I ask is because I have the oil cooled IHI? and a garrett oil/water cooled and I want to use the factory wg but you guys are scaring me with all that 15 psi talk. I'm clear. The wg is tough to pull open though.

How did the button adjust the boost with one springed wg?

Stealthmode,

The button did not change the boost that I noticed. What it actually did was advance your timing some more or retard it. I know that on my 88 auto I would hit almost 10 psi of boost. The manuals ran more... 11 - 15

My T-Bird turbo boost about 7.5PSI and full boost is a little past 5000rpms on a B16.
