discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 17y 6m 12d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 13/10/15 02:33 PM Share Posted 13/10/15 02:33 PM If it's actually stock then the factory tune should do it if you get a genuine actuator from a wreckers? I'm still using my stock actuator after 280,000km and running 15PSI, but it's got a proper custom tune in it from a decent tuner.Depends what "basically stock" means though.

Lennox Member 2,586 Member For: 12y 3m 10d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 13/10/15 10:28 PM Share Posted 13/10/15 10:28 PM What do u mean find a place to put the wastegate? If it's the stock turbo it should be internally gated? If you haven't got it tuned and have all those other parts on it it could be them causing the overboosting.. especially if that's that's a hi flow cat you have on it 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91248-how-much-for-labour/#findComment-1564902 Share on other sites More sharing options...
