Right now I can only get 12lbs. of boost!! Here is my post in the general tech forum:

I have a stock exhaust elbow ported so that none of the exhaust wheel is cover by the elbow. I remember before doing this the elbow covered 1/4 of the wheel probably. Is the TA49 exhaust side of the wheel bigger then the stock turbo's?? I was just thinking that maybe me having the exhaust elbow ported out so much is causing to much pressure on the puck or something. Thus, its harder for me to hold the puck closed and causing my low boost problem of only 12lbs. Also when I did shortened the rod and pulled it out of the actuator and then slipped it on the puck arm I picked up 2lbs. of boost?? So, the actuator wouldn't allow the puck to open as quickly....the spring was tighter??
TIA, Nick
