Yes it has a threaded arm, so should i just screw it back in a bit to drop teh boost levels? Say to around 6psi or so?

You're not just gonna take off the internal wastegate bracket and run an external one?
Yeah, you could adjust the screw but on my Saab T3 it's not marked, so you're just guessing at psi setting.

Im going to run a FMU until my other motor is done. I know its not the smartest thing to do and i've read 1000 times. But im not looking to make the car uber fast just enough to get out of its own way..LOL...
Than once my other Y7 is done I'm going either Crome or Hondata.
Thanks guys for everything. Keep your eyes open as i will be posting pics soon...
