DavidAshton Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Have you welded your actuator shut?!?!? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jakeep82 Posted February 25, 2012 Author Share Posted February 25, 2012 the hoses are all still connected checked over and over them ! i havent managaed to get the turbo apart to fully weld the internal wastegate but i have welded the old actuator arm so that is shut ! confused on what to do or check :/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DavidAshton Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 What turbo setup are you running.Sounds like you may have indirectly welded the waste gate shut on a internal waste gate setup? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jakeep82 Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 i think the wastegate must be knackerd only thing i can think it is Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jakeep82 Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 so now it only goes up to .7 bar on the spring in the wastegate it could only be my ebc ! could my solenoid be broken? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 It may be connected wrong, do a Google search for a fitting guide for the boost controller you have then refer to the external waste gate section. Should show you how it's done there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
