I have 2 cars, an 86 4kq and an 87 Subaru Turbowagon. On my wagon, the boost
is set somewhere around 7psi, which really doesn't do the job. A guy told me
I could pinch down the wastegate vacuum hose a bit, so I did. Now, my turbo
is really moving the car! Unfortunately, if I give it full throttle, it
blows massive unburned crap out the back with a lot of pinging. If I give it
half throttle, the turbo spools up nicely to it's peak and fires the car down
those onramps. Is there anything I can do to get, say...9 or 10 psi without
all the problems? I don't think the wastegate has a replaceable spring...
