lowering boost on 14b wastegate

Re:lowering boost on 14b wastegate
no you're wrong. adding washers to space the wastegate out will RAISE the boost. it essentially makes the spring in the wastegate stiffer from more tension.
making the wastegate arm longer would lower the boost, but in this case, you're effectively making it "shorter" by pulling the actuator away from the flapper.

I think he is talking about adding washers between the actuator bracket and the turbo which would bring the actuator closer to the wastegate/turbo and open the wastegate up a bit, which would lower boost.
