    Simple. Buy a Mityvac MV8500 NOT the MV8000. The latter won't work. It only does vacuum not pressure. The MV8500 does pressure. It's super simple to set your wastegates with it and you can't slowly make them open up ensuring they're set to the exact pressure you need. You can also get them at parts stores but they'll have to order it first because they only stock the MV8000 which only does vaccum not both.

    He sold that and bought a new Evo and dumped like 7k into a 400hp build.

    You need to clarify that really, the link you've posted is for a Blow Off Valve..

    Like I said earlier Reds were the only ones that cut the mustard with my Forge Actuators and TD04-16g's..
    GTO-TT, PTE 1200's, M20, Emanage Ultimate, OS Geiken R3C,
    TD04-16g`s, Maf-t. 13g`s 12.4@115mph / 16g`s 12.5@117mph.

    I went with reds also. No point for me to set under 20psi.
