Default Internal waist gates???

Well I found a turbo off a GS-T. That little T-25 will get some use yet. I know that the stock internal waist gate runs about 12 psi. Is there any way that I can change the internal waist gate to one that acts on less psi? Say around 5-9psi? I'm running a stock block at the moment. Any one messed around with changing the internal waistgates? Or where to get one at?

Thankx

Do you have a belt to go with that waist gate? Jk
Anyway, If Im not mistaken the stock boost on a GST was somewhere around 7psi. Dont quote me on that but it wasnt that high at 12psi. But yes, you can change it if you needed to.

on my friend's GSX, his stock boost is 14psi. and another friend of mine who is almost done swapping his SR20DET into his S14 240SX has 14psi as stock boost setting too.

Well the internal waist gates have a larger valves then the external ones. That and I thought that the internal one would be cheeper.

As Cyan1de said and I said earlier...the stock psi level on a GSX and GST are well above the relm of what I want to run for now. 12psi on a real boost guage...not the stock air temp guage that guesses the psi that you are running.

All I want to know is a company that makes an internal waist gate that runs at 5-9 psi. That's all I ask. I have spent this day looking from site to site and can not find any info on this. I have tried DSM sites nothing. Am I searching in a lost cause? I think not...I believe that the internal and external waist gates work by the same principles hence I think they would make one that is adjustable.

I'm thank you guys for the help thus far...but I'm still looking around for one.

call http://www.majesticturbo.com
And BTW, its wastegate not waist. I was hoping you would catch that when I asked if you needed a belt with that...Just having fun, and harm intended.
