Default boost controler ?

hey on my stage 2 turbo I dropped the boost to 17-18 psi
with the wastgate screw

but the turbo only starting charge at 4000 rpm

how can I do it that it charge earlier but stay the same maximom pressure of 18 psi?

with a boost regulator?? is it good or not every time when you setup the boost you also need to resseting the AFR ?? no

bad idee for our rs turbos?
thanks

Something else is wrong if your stage 2 T3 is making boost that late, boost leak maybe? Weak actuator? Retarded timing?

well it s not exactly 4000rpm but like 3500 rpm

the question is more like if I turn the srcrew on the actuator to have low boost the turbo is charging more at light rpm if I turn it to have more boost It s charging earlyer

If you turn it to have low boost and it starts making more boost you probably turn it the wrong way. Anyway your story sound strange. But mate why don't you go to a tuner again i recommend you. They know engines and they can help you with all problems you reported. Get is sorted and enjoy the car!

Set the waste gate to 9 psi preload or half a hole if you have a garret -31
Fit a 3mm restrictor to the r port of the amal valve the w port remains empty the c port retains the std 2.5 mm
