The reason i took the wastegate apart and started cutting a spring is because i needed less boost, when in fact my turbo was spooling unregulated.

They do make vaccum blocks to solve this issue. lol They are kinda thou! Yea i really didnt have looks in mind while building my car, more along the lines of functionality and reliability, and the funny looks while pulling away from a new mustang or goat lol

timming is .9 deg/psi so i added +1 deg to the boost portion of the VTACK map will see how much better it feels

Here is the turbo mazda mx-6 fuel pump compared to the stock one. I turned the boost up to 20 lbs, there is some boost creep in the lower gears and i'm out of fuel. need some bigger injectors.

i could make a vid... but i have to shift around 5k so the car doesn't misfire, and that won't be too impressive

although that's when it makes fulll boost
