Anyone experienced any problems with modifying waste gate settings? 850 1996

one drawback is that the ecu "learns" the adjusted setting and compensates for it and your performance is back to stock. one way to get around this is to use a g-valve. the g-valve bypasses the ecu. i have had one in my brick for almost a year now and i still thrilled with the early and extra oomph i get. follow directions religiously and DO NOT get carried away and over boost and you should be ok. also do your maintenance religiously, too.
regards
