  1. Wow, China turbo? I bought it under the impression they were good turbos. Did think that maybe the actuator was poor. Talking to them directly they only stated that it must be a boost leak, even after telling them that I had tested all pipe work thoroughly, and that surely the only place that could leak after fitting a new turbo would be hot pipe gasket, which was newly bought. I do feel that it could pull better than the standard. Would a shoddy actuator give you the sound of wooshing leak though? I'm adamant that I will be searching for a hks actuator to eliminate it none the less. Cheers Colin, much appreciated
  2. Since fitting a speedvision hybrid ct9 imported from the us the car just isn't right. Whenever full boost comes on there is the classic wooshing noise of a boost leak however, since fitting I have replaced cheap blue piping for red samco (red is the scheme I want anyway 😁). I have smoke tested the complete inlet system with no leaks detected. I am running pressure purely on the actuator itself guided by my gauge. The question is, do I need more control over the pressure or is it simply that the actuator is poor. I'm just baffled by the clear sound of boost leak and no power in higher gears after all I have done is replace turbo. Any suggestions are welcome Thanks Tom

    Manifold

    I may have to save the pennies and study your tutorial, which is cracking by the way. Thanks for the info wepr
  6. Don't know if anyone has tried this or if I'm way off. Fitting a new actuator, I was wondering if instead of continual adjustments when piping hot until correct release is found, would putting a mightyvac on when cold give you first time winnings? If so, would you set it at desired boost just as the wastegate lifts off or at full opening? Any insight appreciated

    Manifold

    Am I right in that wepr is the only one about for internal gate?
