I too just discovered a waste-gate issue, it was somehow sticking a little and not closing all the way... I could put all the pressure I wanted on it and it would not go closed any further... I would then jiggle it and all of a sudden, it would fall back another 1/8" or so, now its fully closed, I was driving around for 2 weeks with my waste-gate open all the time... Afer discovering the problem, it now closes all the way and max boost has gone up from 25-26psi to 33psi with my larger gt3071R turbo... I went from around 260wtrq to 302wtrq uncorrected in Denver and have the tires spinning off the car now... What a difference :-) It was a simple fix, but I was not happy to find such a simple thing caused such a major issue with my car... Glad it works now I guess... :-) John
