Easier and quicker to buy drill bits, or just leave out, as I did.

i removed the return to air filter restrictor, so the amal valve can bleed off more air, as it will need to do with an increase in boost pressure, if you dont do this ,the wastegate actuator will still see enough pressure to open, and you will imo struggle to get over 23-24 psi


but left the other one alone.

i now peak at 32 and hold 28
