My friend just put an T-61 turbo on his car. The trouble is the boost is running wild. He has an Delta Gate on his car and he had a stage 3 turbo on it before and it controlled the boost fine. I wonder if the waste gate is out of what it's capable of. He took it off and checked it out and cleaned it. Any advice would be heplful.

His combination is:
Production 4.1
Ported and polished iron heads
Matching Intake(Precision Plenum)
Precision Front Mount
55# Injectors
T-61 P-Trim
Delta Gate
3400 Stall Precision Industries
Maximum Effort Thumbwheel
 
I had a simaler problem with my external gate when I swithched turbos. My problem turned out to be the waste gate "hole" on the turbo. I had cottons port it and it works awsome now. Before it was ported the boost was out of control. Hope that helps...
