Changing HKS wastegate spring?
 
I just got my new wastegate spring in the mail. I haven't even looked at my wastegate yet cuz I'm sitting here at work, and its freaking cold outside :)

Anyhow, any ever change the spring on the standard HKS wastegate? I hear its simple, but if someone has done it, reply and tell us how... I hear you just back a screw out, replace the spring and then tighten it back up... but that sounds WAY too simple... every time I do something on the car, it turns into an ordeal, so you can never be too prepared I suppose :D

It's very easy if the wastegate is out of the car. You take the 4 allen bolts off of the top and the cover will pop right off. Be careful with that diapraghm because it's expensive! If the new spring is alot stiffer you may need someone to screw the bolts back in while you hold the cap down.
