Default Another damn wg question

Ok... heres a pic of my wastegate.



Im running 7 psi and i have that wastegate set to the least amount of boost possible.(longest arm) . Everytime I take the damn thing off, and put it back on... for some reason it hits like 8-91/2 psi . (which i dont have the fuel for). Why does it do this? THen someone else will put it on and it fits fine .There are two mounting bolts that screw in through the wastegate to the turbo. Anything I can do just to lengthen it a bit more? Ahhhhhhhhhh please help, its annoying as hell! Let me know if u guys want a pic of the turbo, where it mounts, and just a pic of the turbo w/ the wg on...

Ive seen the faq, and im not sure how to fabricate a spring to work w/ that . I think im going to try making a "custom" extension on the arm, with many holes for diferent boost settings... wish me luck, please let me know if u guys have any ideas.
