dumb question: which way to adjust wastegate for less boost?

[tpivette89]

currently im running basically an open downpipe as my after turbo exhaust setup. this seems to be causing my boost to go over stock levels. im going to install a Poston adjustable wastegate actuator tionight and cant seem to remember which way to adjust it to turn the boost down

is it make the rod shorter for less boost? or longer?

thanks in advance

Make to rod longer to reduce boost. I made the mistake and covered up all the threads and blew the engine up. Brad

I obviously can't spell. Make the rod longer and get a knock gauge or a scan tool to detect it because you cannot hear it. Brad

Yep, longer is less
