? about keeping boost down on non-seq

the little lever that the TCA rod adjusts, would moving that in either directiion keep the boost down? I'ved tried going all the way but then it just makes the turbos spool down backwards, but would just a little bit help?

Thanks

Luke,

You're having trouble keeping boost down on a non-sequential car?...That's odd. One of my reasons going non-sequential was to keep it down.

What about the Home Depot boost controller mod? That should work to keep things down.

Have you ported your wastegate? If not, then that's your problem.

Don't ask me now, but when I went non-sequential, I haven't noticed any boost creep....even with 4th gear runs at WOT.
