holy shitbird i think you are right. I'll try that later today... Thanks buddy. I have a feeling that you might right on this one. I got my deltagate from someone on the net and just got the wastegate alone so not sure if it was supposed to come with one... anyone know if the deltagate wastegates do or do not come with one?

everyone is fucken wrong, including me! haha =) I figured it out last night when I was fiddling with ----. Found out that the screw on my BOV was semi loose. Tighten that ****** up and full boost of 6-7psi at 4.5k I guess I can be happy with that. Its not as low as I wanted to but I guess I'll just consider that traction insurance and fuel efficiency. Now I just have to tune it up and bump up the boost to 10 and see how it performs on the dyno.

Thanks for the help guys.
