Porting Stock Wastegate
Just wondering how important it is to actually port out the stock wastegate.
I've got the full 3" SS exhaust, FCD, HKS intake. Will porting the wastegate do anything. I have noticed that if I pin it in 5th on the highway I'll touch 15psi every now and then, but the rest of the time I'm around 10-12psi.
Should I be worried?

I have a 3" intake and a 3" turbo back exhaust. I ported my wastegates to the limit of the flapper. My boost is absolutely rock solid to where i set it at. I have my controller set my .5bar and it won't budge in 5th gear. Definately port it and you're problems will be eliminated. However, if you have an s4 turbo you're kinda screwed, cause its wastegate is of an inferior design.
