which kit was it? I'm not aware of any Turbonetics kit that run less then 8 PSI intake mani pressure out of box. As a result every kit in production uses a 9 PSI spring in the wastegate as after the pressure drop across the intercooler core and charge piping it comes out to ~8 PSI of intake manifold pressure.
