The wastegate is ajustable, but other then that it is not.

should be a bolt with a spring on the right hand side of the turbo (compressor housing side, or closer to the intake) that you can tighten up an it'll give you more boost

thanks for the help. i tryed adjusting the waste gate but i couldnt get a wrench on one of the bolts its to close to the housing

try just a socket, thats what i used on my buddy's garret

Its very tough to get in there. I ended up grinding a socket down. You need a THIN wall socket!
