[QUOTE="strokin'_tatsch, post: 91294, member: 7"] On my brothers old pulling truck we set up the gate as HRT describe. Heaviest spring we could get in the WG with regulated boost to the top and unregulated boost to the bottom. We used a compressor regulator to regulate boost to the top of the WG. We started with the regulator all the way out, so that the top of the WG saw the same amount of boost as the bottom, and the gate stayed closed allowing as much boost as we could get. We then dialed in the regulator in(less boost to the top of the WG) allowing the gate to open sooner, until boost was where we felt comfortable to keep the turbo happy. We never checked drive pressure even though I would have liked to see what it was doing. Think of it this way.. You have one boost line with a TEE on it. One side of the tee goes to the bottom of the gate and is NOT regulated. The other side of the tee goes to the top of the gate and has a regulator inline after the tee. Hope that makes sense.
