did the initial startup today. wastegate open at idle. its a trimmed 10psi spring, but theres only 1 coil taken off, and it was still hard as ---- to compress by hand--not much easier than before it was timmed. vacuum lines were hooked up properly. it has to be the spring right? do i have to get a new spring, or can i shim it or something. any ideas?

How do you know its open at idle? Unless you running anti-lagg?
Spring is fucked , get a new one. Last thing you want is the gate to fail

i know its open at idle bc its blowing exhaust out at idle. its an open dump

its leaking past the wastegate. Did you put the fire ring in?

fire ring?

fucken noob, there is a little ring that seals the wastegate, its called the fire ring. :1

RealSlowDC2

got it. fixed it. it boosts hard. i wondered what that little metal ring was for, the w/g didnt come with directions and there were a few extra flanges, i kinda figured it was for the dump or something. whatev. thanks ladies
