No carburetor on a 951, they are fuel injected. Do you mean shimming the wastegate?

you should be able to shim the wastegate to increase the boost?

My advice is to buy a proper set of chips and a manual boost controller and do it that way. If you increase the boost, and don't increase the fuel, you are going to have problems.
