Default Think I got into trouble w/this turbo. (vafc, timing, & int. wastgate ?'s)T3 turbo

Hey guys I need some help. I will be installing the turbo next week if everything arrives on time (otherwise the week after for sure). Im getting really worried. Oh yeah by the way, if Dynomax is reading this, hey, are you busy next week?

My question is this.
I have a .60/.48 60 trim T3 turbo and will be using the int. wastegate. I believe the stock wastegate is set at 10psi. I believe this is too much for my D16z6 right from the start. I know I need to change the spring to lower the boost. Do you know anywhere that sells different springs for my wastegate on my T3?

If not, what are some settings I can set my VAFC to in order to run considerably rich so I dont lean out?

Also, what should I retard my timing to in order to protect my engine?

Setup:
t3 turbo
starion FMIC
450cc injectors on the "hack"
2.5 DP and 3 inch exhaust
2.25 to IC and 2.5 to throttle body

Thanks a lot!
Dan
