What is the price roughly for the Waste Gate Actuator modification and at what level are people getting this done?

Cheers,

Brett

they told me it was only on 8 pond boost,  and towards the rrdline it was dropping of to 5 pounds,  they told me I should change the front half of the equast and the cad.

Guys I know it sounds strange but it does happen ive now had 2 cars that will not do as there told 1 std auto mki ute 220rwkw ceiling no matter what I do and another today at 316rwkw but should have seen 350+!!!!

no explanations no anythinge do all the checks but you hit the ceiling and that's it!

more boost less power less boost less power

more timing less power less timing less power

more fuel less power less fuel less power

std or aps exhaust same power

std or larger cooler same power

go figure!!!

just give them another go theyll sort it out!!!

if not I'm happy to check it out quickly on my sydney tuning trip!

C&V know better though, they know not to crap onto people...

Let them know your a member here (because they know that like, 99% of there influencial XR6T customers are members of this forum) and on that alone will give it another try to make sure its right....

Brett, not sure how much, but it is not normaly needed untill a big exhaust and big intercooler, and new pipework is used, and even then some cars don't need it.

Robdam,

8 psi of boost should give you around 230 -240 rwkw. Check all your hoses and joiners for leaks. Change all the factory clamps for descent one's.

Get them to try another flasher. I have heard of members having the occasional problem with them sometimes not loading tunes properly.

Might be the dreaded valve spring issue, can happen to some cars once you try and run 8 psi and over.

some of the things I'd be looking into.

hope you get it sorted
