What is wastegate “creep”?

Wastegate creep is when the wastegate begins opening too early under boost, causing slower spool-up, reduced low-end power, and difficulty maintaining target boost levels. This adjustable kit helps keep the wastegate closed longer to improve response.

Can I adjust boost pressure with this kit?

Yes. The included turnbuckle adjustment allows you to fine-tune wastegate opening behavior for precise boost control.

Does this require tuning?

This kit can be installed on a stock truck without tuning, but boost adjustments should be made carefully and monitored with a boost gauge, especially on modified trucks.
