Wastegate adjustment - More HP? V70-XC70 2000

posted by  someone claiming to be Eric G. on  Tue Feb 20 02:11 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hi

I have had my wastegate adjusted lately to give a little more boost on the LPT. My tech said at around 3800+ RPM, I would start feeling a rush (definitely felt it) but he wasn't sure, in theory, the extra number of HP this could provide. The XC seems quicker as soon as the RPM rise however I don't think we're talking about huge improvement here. Would any tech around here perhaps have a "guesstimate" of such modification?

Thanks!
