I dont know the link to the mod but it is quite simple the mod I did to my truck. I took the wastegate off and threaded the eyelet end of it in so it was as short as possible without cutting any threads off. Put it back on. I got about 3 to 4 lbs more.

Them little clips suck. I will most likely get em back when I do the tranny. lol
BTW, I threaded mine in a little more and with the redline unplugged I hit 20 in stock tune, 30 with the tunner on.

Rumor has it that 24 is safe in stock form as 25 psi is when the Brains tell the engine to de-fuel. Doesn't mean it won't damage it or it won't handle more, this is just the level that the factory has determined they want you to stop beating on it.
I have an older rig in pretty much stock form and have mine adjusted to max out at 22 psi. Wastegating at 10 PSI where mine was when I got it was just re-dic-u-lous.
