if by "tighten the waste gate" are you asking if the flapper door is loose? it's most definitely not. if you mean preload on the actuator, it's set to 10.5psi currently, adding more preload can help with boost drop off but you sacrifice adjustability, I like running low boost when it's cold or wet out. it also wouldn't solve the problem 100%
