installed speed gallery wastegate actuators 1bar spring

take a look, the car feels stronger especially
in the higher rpms and now i see 1.1 some spikes to
1.2. befor it wouldn"t make more than 1.0

They were pre set when i got them, from what i understand
the spring inside the actuator is replased with a 1 bar instead
of .7bar. it keep the wastegate from flapping under boost.

I hope some one from speed gallery will help me out here
and explain a little beter.

I think you are correct Boris that upgraded springs are employed to achieve and sustain greater boost. My new set up will be using the same wastegate springs.

Boris pleae explian rear wheel drive cars! Did you remove front driveshaft? How does it affect handling? How does it affect skid control?

Sounds like a cheap GT2 conversion! Not exactly, but....

Boris I drove mine around for a while in 2WD but dayum it was too crazy and I went back to AWD. Too much power for RWD.
