Is there anybody using these two together if so how are you running the lines a pic would do wonders thanks
 
Here is a picture I made up showing the proper routing for a manual bleeder valve on an external wastegate. This should also work for your setup.

Basically you are regulating the pressure signal to the top of the gate, effectively making the spring stronger. Aka more exhaust pressure required to open the gates valve.

That is how we have it now after doing it the way turbosmarts web site said to do it and when we had it there way it wouldnt come down below 22lbs, but it would come up extremly fast (insane spool up) now that we have it hooked up the way you show it is around 11lbs and creeps up to 14-15 and is a sluggish spool up, we have the spring tension all the way out on the deltagate. There is an arrow on the turbosmarts T pointing and saying towards wastegate I assume that is the top of deltagate

Thanks
 
Yes, when it says too wastegate, that means to the top of whoevers wastegate you are running. You might try tightening up the spring slightly on the wastegate. One other suggestion, if you have your wastegate mounted directly to the downpipe like this setup,

It is advisable to port the wastegate hole on the turbine housing to match the inside Diameter ID of the tubing that runs to the inlet of your wastegate. This will help eliminate the creeping. You need to have some tension on the wastegate, or it could open the valve prematurely and slow the spool up down.
