this one is 10psi currentlyBill - to what preload do you have the wastegate set?

haha. ****** actuator! What's it doing? Not enough pre load?
Can Wellys final map in 338bhp form not be used on yours straight away? or is his ECU too different to yours?
wellys is non wideband non egt, 512k ecu
Westle the actuators are set to one of 3 different values (I think) and then Bill just changes it to what he wants it to be lol.
I'm on to thigh rubbing now lol
Bill has a small pressure gun that is used to apply pressure to the actuator. That way you can physically see when the actuator is opening. You can then adjust the actuator rod length to apply more or less preload to get it to open at more or less PSI.
Simples.
fitted with hybrid fitted
Was it a new actuator fitted an refurb dude?
Actuator "was'nt" the one which went to them... I marked all components.. a.n.other returned! oh so typically from CR
I thought the rod looked at the end of the adjuster on that pic compared to mine......

dont know if that had been adjusted then of course...
Bill -- actuator behavior is impacted by two specs: its crack pressure and the rod lift necessary to achieve that given preload. So for example, you can have two differently configured actuators which are set to a 10psi crack pressure. One needs a rod lift of 2mm. The other requires a rod lift of 8mm. That amount of rod lift will indicate how well the two actuators can maintain boost. Simply put, your actuator might need a stiffer spring.
will be good to compare as im interested in the JBS one if it ever comes out
ok, last night was aborted.. Actuator I had collected had been built with 1/4" rod, not 6mm, so it would'nt fit thru the turbos wastegate actuator arm. got it replaced this morning, and will try again. 14psi crack pressure on bench, no preload currently. (yellow spring)
onwards
CR deserving the name I gave them there then, 296 isn't too shabby though!
He'll be happy to see the back of it and ill be happy to see the front of it
Nice one Bill, The car will probably stop wanting to be flashed next... lol
Good going thus far and more to come - it wouldn't be an S3 without the problems mate, take heart in that fact... :thumbsup:
