Success!!

The popoff valve situation has finally been resolved! I went to Home Depot and in the screen door section I found a packet of 2 springs with a compression rating of 28 lbs. I cut it in half and put it inside of my stock popoff spring. I took the car out and the popoff popped off at 22 lbs! I immediately turned the boost down and have it dialed in at 15 lbs now and still running on the rich side of stoichiometric! This modification cost me $1.92. How's that for a horsepower to dollar ratio? All you turbo guys need to do this as long as you don't run lean. Simple and cheap.
