After a recent dyno run and a few tests of our own (thanks AndyP) it would appear that one or both of my wastegate actuators are buggered on my Z..

 

Anyone got an idea of how much these are and where i can get them from? Also if anyone has had someone (ie garage) fit them, how much would i be looking at as a labour figure?

 

Cheers

Pete

you can get some hks wastegates, not sure how much they are or i'm sure you can get some from some knackered turbos??

I should imagine the drivers side would be a bugger to change allthough both going together i find very strange.

Are you running a boost controler?

Have you tried putting 10psi down the actuator pipe to seeif the arm moves?

Yes I did have a boost controller, but I bypassed it and used 0.8mm mig jets and only got 7psi boost.

I dont know if both have gone but i will try putting 10psi down each actuator pipe to see which side has gone. thanks :)

fixed it. It was the boost controller settings that were incorrect.

 

Thank fook for that :nana2:

After all that? thought you bypassed the bc and used boost jets?

?????????????

 

im confused now.
