I have heard a lot about people messing around with there wastegate to improve the turbo lag. I was wondering how i can do it. can someone please walk me through step by step. And also I wanted to know if I turn it too much can i damage my seals , turbo , or anything else. I already have the Ipd catback exhaust, Ipd chip, and Eurosprt intake. The turbo lag is horrible. Can someone please help. Thank you.

 

Have you tried searching this forum for the topic?

I have explained it many times with a picture of what to adjust.

check out this post.

if you adjust to far you will know.

 

It was unclear to me which way to twist the rod after removing the c clip . Do i turn it clock wise or counter clock wise. So far i turned it clock wise one full rotation. Am i on the right track.

 

You unscrew it to make the rod longer to open the wastegate more.

 

I gave it two full twist and didnt really feel any difference. Is that possible or am i doing something wrong.
