>At that point you have no computer control of the wastegate......              
that's why it's called the shrapnel knobben - that clockwise twist              
is controlled by the ratio of balls - to - brains!   =8)                        
at which point i remind everybody (except SKP, who obviously remembers)         
that no pre-MC motors have computer control of the wastegate.

just not an accessible mod to the starving student who asked the question       
in the first place - or most of us who aren't sending $$$$ to olympia           
for that matter.  the SK is more in the order of a $$ or low $$$ mod, close     
to what some tuners want for the (non-cockpit-adjustable) spring alone!
