well hopefully it won't crack..

maybe the wg spring is an extra higher or lower boost spring that came with the kit. There should be one already in your wg

the springs are usually colour coded for how much psi they are good for. i think red is 9psi and green is 7psi?

it's not the welds that crack genious. my buddy dropped his turbo off the manifold after 2 weeks of driving, the facking tube gauge is thin as paper, the material straight fell apart. the welds were intact.

that's too bad, you can get some pretty good deals and save yourself some money but you have to use some common sense. i got an air filter for $1.
