The wastegate is adjustable But It takes to much time and effort so just get some rubber hoses from a hardware store and pop that $12 boost controler
on and get it to the right setting you stated that you had a boost gauge and a pyrometer right? Just do it

Where did you get that pyrometer i need one? Thery're expensive so does any one know where i can get a descent one for a good price

PS boost controler works I have one myself its just a ball bearing with a spring. I think thats how all manual boost controlers work The Expensive one just look nicer

ive actually been looking on ebay for a boost controler, but the cheapest i could find was something likr $85. i was proably looking in the wrong section. anyways, about the pyro.. i ordered it from summit.com. its the ultra-lite pyro kit. it cost about $135, and the most difficult part of the install was pulling the intake off so i could get access to the exhaust manifold.
i would really like to get one of those electronic power meters for engine horsepower, torque, 0-60, g forces, etc.. but im hesitant to throw $100 at a thing that allegedly does all that by sticking to your windshield...
