listing of internal wastegate settings?
 
I'm about to visit the local pick-a-parts for a turbo and manifold, but don't wanna pick up a hairdryer that's gonna boost higher than I want. I'd like to get a turbo that has an internal wastegate set to relieve at 6 psi or below. If y'all have any listings/references that would be a guide for me, it'd be a big help. Thanks.

You can set any internal wastegate to a lower setting. Just hit the actuator arm with a hammer until desired boost levels are reached :)

I wouldn't worry about the wg setting, I would look for the size (to determine how you want it to spool) and then use a bleed valve to set the boost. The turbo is more important than how much boost you set. (As far as choosing turbo for car)
