Default Umm I think I got a BIG problem.

Yeah well when I built this kit im installing I was planning on starting with low boost and then as time goes by rebuild the block sleeve, etc, etc, So in turn I got a WG with a 14lb spring, now that I think of it, doesnt a boost contoller only help you go over the springs rating and not under or am I wrong, I want to know this before i go any further. Thanks

edit: Now that I think about it more the boost controller uses the boost to regulate when the spring opens and there are 2 ports on the wastgate one above the spring and one below, so I guess the controller can hold the spring down or open it up, so I guess I answered my own ? thanks alot guys

You can only go as low as the spring in the wastegate. If you have a 14psi spring, the lowest you can go is 14psi. you can go over wiht the boost comntroller.

It's probably one of the wastegates sold on eBay? If your boost controller is hooked up you can boost from the spring rate and up. If it's not hooked up you can boost up to the spring rate. I hope this helps.

It depends how much you want to boost or what your power goals are. If you are not looking for a high horsepower monster just get a 7lb spring or 9lb spring and a boost controller.

Yeah I know that, I just want to know what kind I need to get, since there isnt really a brand for it. Do I just get one for Tial?
