Default S2 Wga Adjustment Question?

I have stage 2 no toys on my car. I have my wga adjusted but i am only holding about 15psi with no boost leak. anyway i want to know what direction and how much should i tune it so that i can make it hold more boost. i currently have it set at teh 4mm preload. do i want thread it in more towards the drivers side or thread it out more towards the passenger wheel? i do know that evertime i make an adjustment to reset teh ECU adn go do a 4th gear pull to let teh ECU learn the setting. and info would be much appreciated!

without good fuel mods you won't hold much more than 15 or 16.I suggest you buy a wideband and go from there on to more important stuff, like return line,fuel rail,pump,injectors and a good tuning device

I hold 17 and 18 after spiking 20 so you dont need fuel mods if you already have stage2 without toys like me, mess with the preload again till you get it right, even if you do have it at 4 mm preload.

good luck and really make sure you have no boost leak

Well like red said, if anything u should get a wideband when messing with the boost. I dunno how muchthe s2 wgaholds but you can try buying the AGP or Forward Motion wga's that hold a lot more to redline.

s2 runs pig rich so i don't think you'll have much of a problem running lean lol. get a wideband just to be on the safe side though, you never do know.

tighten the wga up some and see how that works. you can hold more than 15psi on a s2. also look into some w/i, s2 loves it!
