You just need a bc to raise it. You only need to mod the actuator when you want to lower the boost, like you did with your t25.

FWIW, some early HRC stage 2's had the 5psi wastegate actuator. Mine and 2 others I've seen came with the Stage1 WG actuator. Probably a mistake in the shipping department, but I like it because I can turn down the boost for fuel economy now that I have a controller.

Or you can adjust the rod length of the actuator by screwing it inward, then space the mounting plate by adding washers and longer bolts between the turbo housing and plate. I had gone from 7-8psi to a solid 13psi a couple years back by doing this.

but a MBC is cheap, very usefull and effective.
