Default Just one more thing.

I forgot to mention that the Stage I software makes the car deceptively fast. It feels really fast for 270-290 horsepower (whatever you wanna claim it as). I test drove an E39 M5 and while the V8 had more bottom end than my car below 3000 RPM, it didn't feel that exciting when I had my foot to the floor.

You can really feel the turbo running out of breath by 5000 RPM, but I have proven in my own informal testing that you get higher trap speeds if you shift at redline instead of shifting at 5500 RPM where your HP starts to drop significantly.

Default Are you running the stock spring? Also, I assume by 'turn down' you mean loosen or put less

pre-load on the spring?

Default Turn down = clockwise

Yes, I am running the stock spring, my frugality has thus far stopped me from buying a 1.9 BAR spring.

I'm pretty sure turning the wastegate spring bolt clockwise is tightening it down, I don't think it's reverse thread.
