waistegates regulate the boost in a way. you can adjust how much boost you want to run with it. some are set for different amounts. the spring inside is set for a certain amount of boost. you can't boost more then the waist gate spring will let you unless you have a boost controller. if you have a waistgate for 6 pounds you shouldn't turn the boost up to 15 pounds cause you can mess up the spring. get a waiste gate that is set as close as possible to the amount of boost you want to run if you don;t want your waistegate to crap out.:smoker2:
