What boost are you holding now? That would be in 4th or 5th WOT...The problem is the stock springs may not be enough...although you can certainly try adjusting...this can be dangerous (you need to adjust both identically).

I did adjust eh OEM WG as best and safe as I could and I could hold just 1.2 until 4,400 rpms..thus, the adjusted OEM just give a good spike but does not compare with the EVO WG.

wross996TT is right ...be careful if needed adjusting and see your bost level at 4th and 5th gear

I got them from Shark Werks for about $385 plus shipping. Installation is pretty straight forward and there are many links regarding adjusting on 6speed.

You need to answer my questions above....it is not all about boost. There is a maximum you will get before you have maxed out the turbos. The DVs are a different item (do not mix the discussion). It is suggested you upgrade these for prevention (failure of the plastc stock DVs)...not performance.

With flash you should be seeing 1.2 (spikes of 1.3) in 4th & 5th WOT...so if you have flashed, your wastegates could use some adjustment or upgrading the springs.
