There's no point in having the FP WGA on a stock turbo if you have a good boost controller. My car spools stupid fast, achieving 25-26 psi by 3500-3800 rpm, depending where I start my pull. It holds boost all the way to redline (dependent on setting: WGDC or desired boost level).

On stock turbo, all the FP actuator is doing is bandaiding a cheap boost controller.

Nya *****es.

I've got a Turbo Smart E-Boost Street EBC and have done quite a bit of playing around with the boost, gate pressure, and sensitivity settings. Couldn't get anything higher than 21psi at redline no matter what. After the 18psi FP WG, it holds around 23-24 by redline.

Gonna try to reset preload as Joey mentioned since I have the adjustable FP WG.

This isnt 100% true. Its setup dependant and most cars will be close, but others just depends. I had the stock then went to the 18psi and now the 25psi. Not only do I hit boost faster but I hold a tone more out the top on my setup.
