Which makes the flapper open and shut in a fast manner and it can not build up boost pressure down low . So he recommended to buy pass the computer and use a e boost street for $650 fitted . He also said that the valve springs are starting to valve float at higher rpm ,so they are starting to wear out (nizpro replaced 3 years ago 40.000 klm old )that is at about 310 rwkw .So I have just handed over $1900 so far for the injectors and half a tune ,and some trouble shooting .The total might end up costing me a mint if I get the E Boost for $650 . Might need valve springs for another $800 plus .I also asked what injectors that he used ,they are only 1000 Bosch not id 1000 .oh well Edited 26/08/14 07:38 AM by gunna Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89003-turbosmart-actuators-are-rubbish/page/9/#findComment-1495309 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a new one. I have a good one you can have.Haven't heard of issues with ecu - wiring doing this..... Sorry but it sounds like your not in good hands.
