sounds like a 5psi spring (is it?), take off the nut and screw the allen head bolt till its just about flush wiht the wastegate housing, see if you boost properly then...

yes, its a 7psi spring. take off the nut and screw the allen head bolt till its just about flush with the wastegate housing, maybe leave 1 thread left poking out. let us know what happens...

well after turning it like 2 turns it boosted at 5 psi and i just took the nut off and turned it again and were about to take it down the road again but the bolt feels really loose in there
