Has anyone experimented with a new (stiffer) wastegate spring to raise their boost pressure, instead of going with an MBC or a hose bleed system?
My understanding is that the spring would be more accurate, and more reliable, although boost pressure would not be easily changed after the install. You would have to decide how much boost you were going to run, install the new spring at that calibration, and then leave it alone. None of that "two stage boost", or turing it up and down would be possible with the spring method (although I don't really understand why some of you turn your boost up and down anyway).
Thoughts? Comments?
