Obviously I need a cat, but also need the actuator done, I can hear and feel the boost slipping away when I plant it.. Peeks at around 13-14 then just dropps away.. It is hit and miss with the actuator, wish mine was hit.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm onto my 3rd one and its still not giving enough fuel ... My car is making 310rwkw with stock actuator and its holding boost really well peaks at 13.8 and fades down to around 12.3 ...I still have the stock cat in so I'm guessing its helping the actuator out...

longy89 Donating Members 38 Member For: 14y 10m 24d Posted 09/06/10 04:02 AM Share Posted 09/06/10 04:02 AM So it's hit and miss? Coz im running 10psi and want to bump up to 12 when I buy a few more bits, but dont really wanna do the actuator and the rest that follows yet. If 12psi can get 300rwkw, then that would make me happy for a while (maybe 2 months ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAP1D Member Donating Members 3,739 Member For: 18y 9m 9d Gender: Male Location: Sydney NSW Posted 09/06/10 07:49 AM Share Posted 09/06/10 07:49 AM Plenty of cars have run well over 300 with stock actuator, it all depends on the other mods the car has... a restrictive intake/IC system cause the turbo to work alot harder to make higher boost, therefor adding to the pressure on the actuator and making it reduce boost in the higher rpm... this can be overcome by fitting a stronger (higher psi) actuator, but usually will spike boost in the mid-range, so its usually a good idea to enlarge the wastegate port when doing the actuator, as they really work hand in hand.Also as the kays and age on a car get on, actuator will become weak in its spring rate, therefor not holding strong boost like it used too.Never fit an upgraded actuator without getting the car on a dyno to check the tune.
