JayJ Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 I'm not sure, if it's a correct one. Ask frmo Idrees, he can deliver the right one and price would be better than Camskill's Quote

Skimmy237 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Posted September 9, 2013 Can I just use gasket paper for the time being ? Quote
JayJ Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Yes he is, and paper should do the job as long it's not too thin Quote
iamlegend Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) Next to no power... It's not the gasket.. The tmic gasket your meaning here??defently not going to stop boost...If it was the manifold etc and was blowing like hell then mabys.. Edited September 9, 2013 by iamlegend Quote
keirz Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 have you shortened the actuater arm yet? Quote
Fizturbo Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 have you shortened the actuater arm yet? This and which ct9 hybrid is it who's it built by,av tried tested many hybrids in past and sum didnt even spool up at all. Quote
Skimmy237 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Posted September 9, 2013 Well it's just been built by Liam d so should be good ! And Craig that had it in his car before said that it worked etc etc i will try this gasket and see, and yea I shortened the arm but no difference and speed vision Quote

Skimmy237 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Posted September 9, 2013 What ? Listen mate I'm looking for abit of help to try and rectify the problem Not to try slag off what I have Quote
keirz Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) how much did you shorten it?is the actuater arm straight or pulling at an angle?how do you have it plumbed in? direct from turbo nipple to actuater?can you feel or hear any air leaking from the gaskets, use a piece of pipe to listen with Edited September 9, 2013 by keirz Quote
keirz Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 the fact its a speed vision is irrelevant, yes they are shit straight from speedvision,but this one has been rebuild and balanced by the best in the business.....i built it! Quote
Skimmy237 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Posted September 9, 2013 Hamilton dude, and I know it's better than standard now as it has been rebuilt, I am going to start by changing that gasket first then set the arm then go from there but if anyone wants to help feel free ! Quote
StuDoc 72 Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Are you working just now? I'll sort it for you but youd have to come to me. Quote
Skimmy237 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Posted September 9, 2013 Aye mate working till half 4? Where's yours because I have zero money left mate Quote
StuDoc 72 Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 A was gny say bounce over to ma work if your off because a work in Bellshill but a live in Dumbarton so would cost you about a score in petrol. Quote
Skimmy237 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Posted September 9, 2013 Would you charge me to fix it ? Text me dude 07718062680 Quote
Ollieh17 Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 I have a similar issue. Im waiting on a answer to see if the 'wastegate gasket' is what i need too as i have no gasket between intercooler and turbo. I keep shortening the actuator and its making no difference(have less boost than standard now). I thinks its because i haven't got a proper pin an clip set up and have used a nut and bolt allowing slight play between actuator and the little bracket. Quote
Skimmy237 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Posted September 9, 2013 Yes that's the same as me! It must be the gasket dude Quote
StuDoc 72 Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) Would you charge me to fix it ? Text me dude 07718062680 Course not mate it should be a 2min job to identify it when you know what your doing. I have a similar issue.

Nah mate the wastegate gasket isnt what you need. Thats a gasket for a wastegate hence the name lol. Mind you if they are the same size it might work. You need a CT9 hotpipe gasket. Just make 1 from a bit of cereal box. I have ran mine without one for years and its fine if you can get it tight enough and the surfaces are flat. Edited September 9, 2013 by StuDoc 72 Quote
Ollieh17 Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 It looked the right sort of shape so assumed it may have been what i'm after. Ill give the cereal box ago later. It's really hard to fiddle with the actuator etc as i lengthen/shorten it, wait for the car to warm up then go for a blast to see what its boosting at. Find out the boost is too much/too low and everything is too hot to fiddle with again for another hour. doing my head in. Quote
Ryan_EP82 GT Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 ^^^ pointy nose pliers and you wont get your fingers scalded by the decat/downpipe lol the cereal box should do the job for the gasket nps. Quote
Ollieh17 Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 pliers and gloves have been my friend all weekend..so fiddly though... still missing a majority of the skin on my knuckles Quote
Skimmy237 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Posted September 9, 2013 Aye me too man blisters on my hands !! Can I try a cereal box for mine ? Quote
