Default need to know what wastegate spring

going to boost here soon. purchasing 38mm tial. was wondering what pound spring to get to reach my goal 0f 300hp. stock b16a 10.4-1. either t3/t4 50 trim or 57 trim. more than likely a 50.

but knowing what spring for both would be nice.

any help appreciated

Well, info is lacking, but taking a stab in the dark, 12 psi should do it(whp) on a stockish b16. This is asuming a good exhaust, fmic, and, of course, a proper tune. Big red is 11.6 psi, big green is 13.05. These are'nt always accurate which is why it's better to go with a lighter spring and a boost controller.

with a stock gsr i used a 7 pound spring with a boost controller giving me 9.5-10 pounds, gave me 306whp. but this is on a 1.8 gsr, u may need a couple more pounds to reach your goal
