I know this will probably be another post speaking bout the same thing but....

If you do the Rod mod on the waste gate does it work well with westers tune?

Thanks

Do you really need more boost? Westers is running like 23+ psi with the race tune, i'd keep the rod in the stock location.

They don't go well together. Like Shabby said, you can get 23 PSI with the tune. If you hold that over 3 seconds, you'll go into limp mode.

I had the mod on mine when I got the tune and noticed some knock at 23 PSI. I backe mine back to the stock position, get 21-22 PSI consistantly, and eliminated the knock.

You are not going to have the rod much forward of stock with the Wester's tune ...

Thanks for the info.

I have the rod mod right now just getting the info together fo rthe tune. Didn't want to conflict with anything. I will turn the rod back before the tune then.

Thanks a bunch guys.
