holy ******* ****. an entire paragraph and not a single period. wow my head hurts.

put some washers between the the wastegate and the compressor housing where it mounts, it will create more spring tension on the wastegate and make it open later

yah check your boost gauge first. does it read 0 when its off. what kind of vacuum do you see at idle.

are you sure its the greddy wastegate? did you buy this new or used.

Why even bother with 5lbs, doesn't seem worth the money. Go with the 9lbs.
