Hello there. 

I need some help. I have a ba xr6 turbo with some mods done. I have the turbosmart wastegate. Now my mechanic has told me that my car is overboosting. The wastegate is starting to open when im at 20psi. Which he tells me this can cause major problems. 

Why could this be and how can it be fixed?

Injectors

valve springs

fuel pump

mechanic is taking waste gate off atm to adjust boost level... 

My mechanical knowledge isnt that great with these types of things. Just want to boost changed and lowered so its safe.

Adjust the preload. If that doesn't drop it enough change the spring to a lower rated one.

Chances are it's a 12psi unit which has a 5 and 7 psi spring in it.
