Tobey Awesome... Member 407 Member For: 14y 11m Gender: Male Posted 25/10/11 12:59 AM Share Posted 25/10/11 12:59 AM (edited) Does it use the standard actuator? As these are too weak, they cant stay shut when on boost... For 17psi you should have at least a 15psi actuator in there.EDIT: Using external wastegate wont have an actuator duh...Check the joiner that goes onto the throttle body, these are known for leaking...
