Well, I found it even easier to run positive manifold pressure, through a cheap
regulator, to the open nipple on the wastegate, helping hold it closed.

I didn't have to open the wastegate to screw around with springs, and it's
adjustable with a turn of the regulator. You can even run the line into
the cockpit for in-car adjustability.

I haven't changed anything in the computer, so I still hit the limit
at 12psi, and then back it off one notch.
