Wastegate Pressure Test???
 
So I just got my wastegate today and I was wondering. Before I put this ---- together is there a way to check to make sure they put the correct spring in the WG? I ordered one with a 6psi spring... but I want to make sure before I put it on and overboost my ----. So anyone have any ideas?

Is there a technical way to figure this out? Like hooking up a hose and putting some air pressure on it or something?

Those bastards! According to your 2nd link the yellow one is the 3psi spring I SPECIFIED THE 6psi spring :7
And the 3rd link is the one I used to actually buy the WG <--- irrelevant

I guess I'll just try it out and if it doesn't go over 3-4 psi I'll just throw that MBC on there.
Thnx for the input man.

If you bought it from ssautochrome, email their customer support and they'll send you the correct spring free of charge. Thats one thing about ssac, their cs is pretty damn good.
