What year is your car? The fastest non-Aero 9000T's were '91-92.
Here are instructions for cranking your wastegate rod:

HOWEVER, if your ECU is aftermarket, I would not recommend cranking your wastegate. I tried this and my coolant was boiling for 2 hours immediately after blowing the head gasket. The turbo and exhaust manifold were glowing red-hot.
The wastegate does not increase boost, it only gives you a surge of extra boost before dropping down to the base boost level again. Sure, every little bit helps, but it's no substitute for getting an aftermarket ECU.
