OK I can answer this one. I spent 11 bucks at the hydraulics shop for a
little 0-15psi regulator. I removed the wastegate solenoid, and put the
regulator in place of it. I turned the knob until I got 18psi, and I put
a wire between the T terminal and the chassis. I agree, it's not
perfectly "safe" and I am taking my chances with the motor, but I would
be taking chances with my motor with anyone's mods at 18 psi, so I don't
really see much difference.

Being Canadian, we try to disassociate ourselves from the mother country,
so I don't really know what knickers and socks have to do with it :-)
