How do I control Boost level on an internal wastegated turbo?
 
How does this work. WIth external I guess you get an adjustable wastegate, but how to you change the one built into the turbo.

With a hammer to the actuator rod or a boost controller

no wastegates/actuators set boost to a perdetermined level usually 8psi. To raise it over that mark you need a boost controller

ok. That makes sense, are most of them 8 psi or do they vary depending on the turbo used?

bend the rod makes it shorter and lowers boost. drop a boost controller in there if you want to raise it.
