Default why deltagates suck (as if you didnt know already)



so i got the car tuned at 9psi a few weeks back. the car ran good and would sometimes hit 11. well i installed my blitz dtt dc2 yesterday and took the ride for a ride so ii knew where to set the boost warning light (it reads in bar) and the boost spiked enough to make my map sensor go crazy (i guess around 11.7psi) so i come back to my house and pop the hood figuring i'll just turn it down a little on the wastegate. so i loosen the lock nut and no sooner do i break it loose, the wrench flys out of my hand and the top part of the wastegate goes flying. i've never seen anything like this happen before. o well i guess im upgrading sooner than i thought haha.... i will be ordering a tial 38mm or maby a turbosmart ultra-gate on monday.
