Finally I finished and can drive the car with the new turbo.
So far, the engine breaths a lot better, goes to redline very quickly with no hesitation for more air. Is like the sinuses have been decongested, lol.
Seems to boost 8psi at 4k to redline all the way. I thought it had a 10psi spring. Does this seem weird?

What gears have you tried so far? You may not hit the highest levels in 1st and 2nd.

more load on the engine = more boost

In higher gears there's more load on the engine and the boost usually creeps up higher. You have alot to learn. :P

I've had that with my HKS standad wastegate. In the lower gears it would open up early.
