Sounds like you should have a professional look at it at this point it would probably be the best for everything if you have the money.

Guys,
after i added another 7psi spring into my turbosmart w/g (total 14.5+7 = 21psi) the sound like boost cut / misfiring problem still occur...And im facing a more worst over boost issue...

I still not re-gap my new plugs and will it be :
1) Boost Solenoid problem?
2) Air flow sensor?

I am just trying to visualize a more complete picture of your turbo and wastegate setup. So, do you have the stock V turbo and a remote WG? Am I way wrong?

Hi Sparky,

As my Mech have tested the w/gate after added the new 7psi spring and the w/g valve will only start opening on 1.6 bar...
