    no!!!!!!!!!

    WG boost should never be tweaked with unless you know what you are doing. Leave it well alone if you are running stock or remap'd. 0.4bar. If you are running big turbo etc then you would be safe to run 1bar maybe more, but WG boost should always be less than controlled boost.

    Im sure i/you will get told other things, but unless you have had the car setup for different WG settings then leave it stock at 0.4bar. I used to run the big turbo setup at 1.8bar on the WG and 2.5bar controlled.

      I think when he says a 1.9bar spring thats an absolute number so it runs to 0.9bar boost on the spring... However as Tom rightly says - you can't just drop in a big spring like that without ECU modifications to change how boost is controlled.
