Question how can "I" increase boost

I have an 04 555. Don't they have the mechanical wg? How do I increase my boost?

no point to increase it unless you have some more fuel going into it... some have claimed more boost from installing a cold air type intake [take your pick of many popular brands]

now if you want to tinker, you can add some shims [like 1/8" thick washers] under the WG actuator mounting screws..., or install a boost bleed elbow to cheat the signal going to the WG...
