I could of swore some of the Saab wastegate shafts had a threaded rod on them no? If so you can adjust it lower that way. But for the most part I think they are around 6-7psi.

I would definatly get a better fuel managment setup, than just a FMU, especially on a B16a.

I wish I could have Johnny's "trial and error" wallet. Hahah.. My wallet tells me I better know what the hell I'm doing BEFORE I do it.

Just go to some refinery and get some toluene and pour it straight into your gas tank. Then, you really can't detonate EVER at 8 psi... or 38 psi... :o and you won't have to worry about the detonation, only the structural strength of your pistons, rods, and crank. Oh yeah, and back the timing off a couple degrees, too ;)
