hmmm it doesnt really feel slow though? surely a drop that big in boost would make it feel like my nans renault 5? whats all this wastegate business lol? ill need that to be explained in the form of a crayon drawing as im only young :D
 
cheers guys!

The wastegate is a by-pass valve that regulates the boost pressure by taking some of the exhaust gasses another route away from the turbo.
