V6 Supercharger question

I currently have the S.C. with all that Toyota offers on it. My question on the top of the unit it appears that there is a waste gate .Has anyone experimented with vacuum restrictors or a turbo tuner (electronic vacuum restrictor) to get some more boost?

you cant get any more boost out of the trd s/c unless you get a smaller pulley.

that actuator doesnt work like a wastegate actuator on a turbo system.

I was not sure how the waste gate worked on the S.C. I talk to a few guys that have Turbos on their cars and I just had some questions ...
so far thanks for the fast replies.

he said "turbo tuner", usually called a boost controller for turbocharger systems.
