Answer: Boost Controller

It's only hitting 5lbs because that's what the spring in the wastegate is set to.

But On the WasteGate With the Screw I Took the Screw off and Made It Really Short and Connected it back.... And Made No difference.....So you think a boost controller would help greatly?

If you shorten the wastegate arm too much.. it will bind the wastegate spring overtime. Just get a boost controller. Manual ones are only like $40 for a Joe P MBC.

can you use a manual boost controller with the greddy kit? I thought you couldnt not do this and the only way to turn up the boost would be to twist the arm were the internal wastgate is.

why wouldn't you be able to do it? The internally wastegated turbo in the greddy kit works the same way any other internally wastegated turbo does. You just run the boost controller inline with the vacuum source and the wastegate actuator.
