Default new wastegate actuator

hey guys happy to be back after an absence, a while ago i found out my supra has a waste gate that is sticking open, so to remidy this of coarse is a new actuator. so i found one from drift motion and from reading the FAQ's people here recomend it highly. they now offer a new one in the factory 8psi and now 11

heres the link http://store.driftmotion.com/static/...ctuatornew.php

from going to the FAQ's iv read that whith no mods besides intake you can go 10psi, but whith full exshaust and intake( and possibly intercooler) i will hit fuel cut at 10. all i have done to mine is mainenence(new fuel filter air filter lines hoses and what not) and turbo on back 3inch exshaust and aluminum radiator. my question is whith my current mods can i buy the 11psi actuator and 1.not hit fuel cut off and 2. run into issues. later in time i will but a drift motion turbo kit and motor work to match but for now im happy whith 8 will be satisfyed whith 11psi, recomendations?

Manual boost controllers are easy to build or cheap to buy. I'd go with the 8 and get a boost controller. Remember, with a wastegate you can't back the pressure down lower than the internal spring rate boost controllers only allow you to increase the pressure. So, if something breaks and you need to baby it you'll have to be even more careful if you drive the car while waiting to fix whatever issue you have.

Ok thanks for the recommendation, I'll go ahead and get the 8, and a side note drift motion has added ALOT of good stuff for the mk3 recently
