Lower boost who wants lower boost more boost more boost it will work for lower boost but for more boost the trick is no good because your putting more pressure on the spring but at the same time your shortening the amount of travel that the waste gate can open. I knew this fella who did this it worked for more boost but it spiked very bad. But less boost i can't see why not. But the limitations is still there soon as that waste gate opens from lengthening the rod boost it takes longer to come on if at all.
