[QUOTE="euroford, post: 1466077, member: 17667"] i think its sort of a progression, when your relatively stock, clamping down the wastegate helps it spool up and reach higher boost levels, then after further upgrades you start worrying about backpressure and EGT's again and then having a working wastegate becomes an "upgrade" again. I ran mine that way for a long time until i upgraded injectors, and then started monitoring backpressures. the only way to have the best of both worlds is to actually control that wastegate again and have it closed when you need it closed and open when it should be open. to do this, it needs some kind of controller, this isn't something thats going to be solved by an upgraded actuator or dieselsites spring loaded doohicky.
