any thing bad with running 6psi boost?(wasteGate)
is there any down side to running just the wastegate springs of 6psi? will the car run really rich if i run it on the 6psi. what gap would my plugs have to be, my goal in this is to keep me from wasting so much gas bc if i feel i have less power ill be less aggressive with my driving. i only wanna do it for the winter to save me a lil bit of money with gas. but wanted to know if it will cause problems with the car if i run it on 6psi for 3 months. thanks

No it will not cause any problems.
THe only change will be less HP from the lower boost.

Re: any thing bad with running 6psi boost?(wasteGate)
Great question I always wondered that myself, why not turn boost as low as wastegate and fpr can tolerate too, you can always turn the boost back up when you want to really get on the pedal otherwise save lots of $$$$ on gas!!!

Re: any thing bad with running 6psi boost?(wasteGate)
you may be in uncharted territory there. what do n/a guys gap at? maybe shoot for somewhere between there and normal TT gap?

Re: any thing bad with running 6psi boost?(wasteGate)
i've run at 6 psi with normal TT gap, but now my plugs are gapped smaller for higher boost... but i think normal TT gap would actually be ok
