I have a 38mm Tial Style External wastegate and I will be getting the car tuned next year. I'm only running 6ish PSI now, would like to be at 10 PSI.

My question is:

Will any 38mm spring work or is it specific to make, model, etc.

I know that I need a Large Yellow spring from Tial to get the 10.15 PSI. Can I just order that or will it not work?

Thanks for the help.

It should work. Here are 2 questions, is the wastegate you got ebay? If so just dump it and buy the real one.
Also what are you doing driving around untuned? Lol

It is a EM USA brand. I dorve home for install and then to storage untuned. First thing I do next year is new clutch, bigger fuel pump and injectors. Then it's off to Zeeman for a tune and then have fun all summer long.

or you could just get a boost controller and turn it up.

I was always under the assumption that you need springs from a specific manufacturer, but i've never tried tial springs in a turbosmart wastegate before (or vice versa).

What would you recomend for a boost control?

Anyone else have any opinions?

boost controller. why limit yourself to the spring psi. some day you might be driving around and wonder what 35 psi feels like. lol thats how i put a talon down.....she asked for it tho.

I'm bought the AEM TruBoost Gauge. Lightning Motorsports - Made with Bits of Real Lightning, so you know it's good ! AEM-ARP-Competition-Skunk2-Walbro-more - Homepage
I haven't used it yet, but at Offical AEM Air Induction Systems and Performance Electronics Site - Home Page has videos on it. I picked the TruBoost because I have a AEM EMS computer, and they communicate with eachother.

go with an EBC like the others said. its a great advantage to be able to run low boost lvls most of the time and crank it up only when you need it.
but dont go with a tru boost they are an epic fail had 1 for a while and hated it i bought an apexi avc-r and love it
