I have about 1/2" more threads left on the adjustment for the wastegate to
put more load against the spring in the wastegate diaphragm to possibly
gain a little? We're heading out Thursday and don't have the time to get
something ordered and installed. Just trying to do what I can with what I
have and time to do it. Thanks again!
