Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) boost increase

[rholst]

I have a 2002 5 spd and was wondering if there is any thing i can do to raise my boost, would shortning the waste gate rod work? i have an edge ez installed also so should not de fuel iam presuming, thanx for the help

2 things

you can put a turnbuckel on the wastegate to prevent it from opening or you can remove the actuator and plug the hole

i have the elbow in and the ez and i was getting about 27 psi. how much would u get if you plug the whole for the wastegate.

Back when I had just the ez with elbo and a restraigned wastegate the best I did was 28... ... ..... now with the comp I see 34-35 perfect... ... ... ... Kevin

You should have recieved a little brass elbow in the box with your EZ. If not you might call edge and see what they can do... Arron is a great guy.
