I think my agp works like....the closer you back the nut off the bolt....(like trying to take the nut off)...lowers the boost because your making the spring inside the wastegate less tight...im pretty sure thats it...

you shouldnt be backfiring that bad at 19 tho.....do you have a wideband?? you need to check your air/fuel ratio and make sure your okay ...(but obviously your not)....make sure you are getting proper air flow thru your intake and make sure your spark plugs are gapped shorter...

IF YOU DONT GAP YOUR SPARK PLUGS CORRECTLY you will backfire like crazy at 19 and run like crap...when you run more boost you have to adjust the gap on your spark plugs to about .35 - .40

that i think is probly ur problem...but good luck anyway

my bad just read your other thread...see you said you gapped the plugs.... you definately need to install a wideband to help you figure it all out...
