the problem is that i can run well over 60psi before it has fully reved out i cant even think of holding it full throttle

both of the turbos have wastegated exhaust housings but i havent set one up yet i need to get a boost controller because they are both wastegated to open at 15psi i just took off the diaphrams and made plates to hold it shut
I'm confused... Your saying you put a plate to disable the waste gate? That kinda defets the purpose of teh wastegate...
thats what i was going for they where both already wastegated but if i left them hooked up it would open at 15psi and that is no fun i am gonna get a boost controller to put inline to my wastegate so i can set it to open at a higher boost level, the exhaust housing on my stock turbo came from a hx35w from a second gen but either way the wastegate on the hx40 is the one i need to open

If your getting 60psi out of a h1c/hx40 you need to wastegate that bad boy. Open your gates back up. You can adjust the gate rod on them to get them to open later. All you are doing is blowing hot air and asking to explode a turbo.
i dont think that i am going to be able to adjust it so that it opens that high though because adjusting the rod just changes the amount that it opens the spring in the diapham will still open at 15psi regardless of the rod adustment
its a 727 3 speed and i did have the hx40 on there by itself before it has a 18cm exhaust housing on it, it had alot of lag and didnt make mutch more boost because of all the lag due to the fact that it is 74mm vs the stock which is 54mm
