dangeestarlet Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Standard actuator Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zeldoz Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Boost leak? Check your piping, did it boost fine before you pulled the engine out the GT? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
patman Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I had this problem mate actuator needs shortening as it's set up too long and the only thing I could think of was the wastegate is not shut properly therefore boost came in 4-5k revs so actuator needs setting up properly mate hope this makes sense Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dangeestarlet Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 (edited) No boost leaks, couldn't tell you i never drove it and only started it for like 5 seconds Edited February 7, 2014 by dangeestarlet Quote Link to post Share on other sites

patman Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Ok when I took mine to be dyno mate he adjusted the actuator on mine and put a split t-piece in the vacuum pipe thingy from the actuator to the turbo so the third bit on the t-piece is just a breather bit I take it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Sounds like the actuator has a dodgey diaphragm, if its not a boost leak/fucked turbo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dangeestarlet Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Must be actuator as turbo has no play or smoke etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
patman Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Won't be the turbo deffo actuator mate if you had an adjustable one your be sorted Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I have a adjustable actuator here Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris_GlanzaV98 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 get an adjustable actuator and have it set up at a rolling road, dont bother messing with the standard one as its fucked and will let you down in the future even if its sorted Quote Link to post Share on other sites
