Replace the spring with a piece of coathanger.

he said he is using a wastegate, with a carb spring instead of an arm.
Have you tested it without the carb spring? I hate internal wastegates. |

Could be wrong, but the way I read it he has a plain dumb throttle return spring connected to the flapper instead of a wastegate actuator.

Re: Losing boost with carb spring in 4th and 5th gear
ur looseing boost because of the extact same reasonthat MBC's will boost different psi in different gears. More load onthe engine, more exhaust gas pressure, even though same boost pressure.
