Is our wastegate adjustable???
Can we replace it? Is our adjustable?? How??
I am ony getting 5.7 psi, and it is supposed to be 7 psi from factory. What about those people running 8 and 9 psi, how do you adjust that???
Thanks

yes, the wastegate should be adjustable by disconnecting the one end of the actuator rod, and screwing or unscrewing the "yoke" on the end of the rod. another option, if the greddy kit has a pressure line running to the wastegate, install a manual bleed valve, or use a electronic boost controller.

Yes, be sure to "shorten" the rod a turn or two (one or two more if it needs be), which you will have to do from the underneath. We lenghtened mine using some other logic and didn't get anywhere 
.
Going to shorten it back up tomorrow, but got a boost controller standing by just in case that doesn't work...may put it in regardless.
