Yeah really scary..and running on 450's and a homemade map hack. I'm using an old map sensor from a '87 CRX...it doesn't seem to throw a CEL when going to 1 bar

internal wastegate...I would have to make the wastegate arm longer....Sometime ago it was shortened I made it longer...it's about stock lenght.
But the turbine is small....it only goes to 1 bar in 2nd and up in first it doesn't...I think .
and the wastegate hole isn't that big either.
I will get an external one as soon as I have some money
