Tial Wastegate spring question
I am really confused here, and hopefully someone can better explain it to me.
When trying to run higher PSI, you are suppose to double up the wastegate springs (1 small spring + 1 large spring = Total PSI) Well my confusion comes in at this: If you double the springs (a 1 BAR spring and a .5 BAR spring) when the PSI reaches the 1 BAR pressure, wouldnt the PSI over come both springs at 1 BAR not 1.5 BAR?

Nope... you combine the springs. With just the big blue I was boosting to 14 psi. Added the little green and went to a gm 3 port bcs and it is at 21 psi of base spring pressure.
