Default DSM watsegate prob

well i finally got boosted. i love it. it rips hard(compared to n/a), but i have a t25 DSM witch the wastegate should be at 8psi, but its goning to 11psi at full boost.WTF? its cool and all, but its not tuned yet. i have the wastegate line attached to the compressor housing. i thought that would give me less boost, but obviously that didn't work. anyone got any ideas on whats up here??

btw i'll be posting pics of the most ghetto turbo kit in quite some time. ABS chargepipe and all!

Did you clock the turbo or make any changes that would pull the WG harder on the flapper door? My DSM T25 was hitting 15psi, but I clocked the turbo so it's pulling harder on the flapper. Since I'm just running a FMU I disconnected the actuator from the flapper and using the famous choke spring WG holding the flapper pulled to 6psi.

nope, no clocking. i'm thinking about using a spring also. just kinda ghetto. although the rest of my kit is kinda ghetto so i guess it will complete it.
