Default Carb Spring Wastegate Actualtor Question

How hard is the spring suppose to be? i'm using this mod and i get 2-5 psi and it varies every time how much boost i get. sometimes it even stops boosting at the upper rpm ranges. any pics on the spring set up

Sometimes it can be a bitch to dial in, thats why I really wouldnt be recommending it to alot of people unless its an absolulte must OR you are using a 14b.

You will have to play with a few springs to get the thing to work right.

depends, sometimes hardware stores, sometimes automotive stores.

My favorite is the junkyard, you can grab a shitload from lots of carburators and just put them in your pocket..
