Anyone put a heavier spring in the wastegate?
Did you notice a difference?
Where did you get it?

thanks

You can use the 911 Turbo 1 bar boost spring.

It will make a big difference over standard, but intake temperatures will be too high to run for any length of time without fitting an intercooler. You run the danger of damage to the engine.

The most recent Performance Products catalog has wastegate springs of a couple of different rates. Don't remember the exact figures or prices though. I think I've read here on the Board that Andial is also a source.
