since the weather has warmed up my boost isnt hitting its usual target by about 0.1bar,would tightening the actuator bring it back on target? |

Could be worth a shot Rob....The general census for setting up the actuator is adjust the arm so that its about a 3rd of the way over the pin(wastegate fully shut) so it takes a small tug for it to slip on, you dont want it to just drop on the pin. |

just get a water bottle from another car, wire it in and get some plant water sprayers and take the ends off and put them on the hose from the pump. set the ends to mist and there you go a water spray kit. did it on my pulsar and made a big differance in the summer... mist goes on the intercooler.... |
