Increasing Wastegate Spring from 1bar to 1.5bar
I'm not sure how the Vipec boost control works, but I would imagine there is a set point where it will start to control boost. Simply upping that set point will be very similar to the higher wastegate spring pressure at those boost levels.
You want solenoid duty cycle to be 100% until boost gets close to the desired set point, then you want the ECU to step in and start controlling things.
A higher spring pressure will help hold more boost when pushing the limit of the turbo, but higher boost doesn't always mean more power if the turbo is being overspun and efficiency has dropped like a rock.
