well for those of you who have been helping me in my situation i figured i would give you the latest update. i did a test on teh actuator and it worked fine, no leaking detected, so i figured i would go ahead and drill out the nipple to lower my boost. after much deliberation, and the persuasion of bacon, i went for it. i was having boost of 14.5 regularly and after i drilled it out just a little bit it went down to 13. so now i am havinga 13-11-11 boost pattern which is a little better to me. so this is the update i will let you know any further developments as they happen. i thank all you guys for your help, scott
