Now that I've shared, I need help getting my boost controller adjusted. It is the blue TurboX (turbonetics?) one. Right now I'm approaching 14PSI if I'm not careful. Lots of power, but not good for the car.

I've tried adjusting the little screw in the middle of the thing but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Here is a pic. Is it on correctly? How do I turn the boost down?

You don't have instructions for the unit? My MBC needs to be turned anti-clockwise to turn it to it's lowest level. Also, it needs to be pulled out before any adjustment is made, then it can be pushed in to lock it. Your unit might have the same type of safety feature. Are you sure you put the hose to the wastegate line on the right fitting?

For now, I just removed the MBC and put in a connecting joint. The wastegate opens fine at 7 PSI. This is fine until I get used to the boost. Compared to my 924, this car is plenty fast!

I will never admit that, after looking at the TurboXS website, I had the damn thing on backwards which is why it wouldn't adjust properly.
