Im wondering how to turn the actuator up to about 12 psi? its a 1985 with a 1987 motor.Is the actuator under the turbo were the small pressure line comes out of the turbo housing on the air out side. which way do I turn the screw and how much from standard to about 12 psi?
thanks borrie

    Shorten the rod to raise boost. go one turn at a time ONLY! But be warned. though 12 lbs doesnt seem like much more than stock, you must run premium fuel, keep up with maintenance, and if it starts to ping, turn the boost back down, or you will make a nice peice of furnature out of that motor!!!! You pay to play, remember that and live by it!!!
