Default How can you tell what size wastegate you have by looking at it?????

I got all my parts in the mail last weeke and I was trying to figure out what size wg I got, on the top of it there is a sticket with Turbonetics Inc. , Pat. Pending, Deltagate Mark II, P/N10101, and that is it!!! nothing else anywhere, I bought the kit used so I cant contact any store or anything, just wondering if you guys knew of a way to tell. Thanks.......

you know what? you and i are in the same predicament. My deltagate has the same sticker, except mine has another little sticker by the vacuum port that says 6 or 9.......so i don't know if it's a 6psi spring or a 9. The only way to really find out is to get it running and get a boost gauge. Something i haven't done.

Stan, it's me Luis. I changed my username to boosted-da9. Hahahah. i thought it fit me better. Hey how do you adjust it? i know it's the top bolt and nut, but do you looson it for more boost or tighten it?

By the way, the fittings are working like a charm .

I know from the guy I bought it from, he said it is set at 9 psi. but i have seen some posts saying, "35mm wastegate, 40mm wastegate" does that mean anything that I need to know about?
