its working..... but you want a lower boost? You can use a different internal wastegate. I just bought one, and managed to fit it on my car, it boosted like 10 on my guage, but it was likely more like 8 ish... don't know, you could also set it so its always a little bit open, but thats gonna hurt your spool up. Did you buy the turbo used?? Did someone smash the diaphram to get it to boost up to 12? Why not do 12 psi.....
