I set the lower setting to 6 psi and it gets me about 7-7.5 psi. High setting is at 10 psi and it ends up hitting 11-11.5 psi. This is with the gain set at 100 - If I turn down the gain, it gets even closer to the actual setting, but it loses alot of TQ early in the curve...
yeah the externals have a bigger path for the exhaust gasses to flow. what exhaust do you have? I would advise anyone going with stage 1 turbos to only get the external wastegates for better low boost control.

I'm looking to have a machine shop fabricate some exhaust restrictors instead of going with HFC, hopefully that will keep me under 9psi with the controller off.
