bonnet catch adjustable?
no the whole catch assembly is only bolted on, if its moved down slightly it will kill the gap
-
bonnet catch adjustable?
put a little tipex or black paint on the stops and close the bonnet, if when you reopen its on the bonnet then yeah they should be ok, i have seen a write up somewhere about redrilling holes and locating the catch a little lower. Zeds of Dallas website i think

if its bust like it sounds, your car will be eigher overfueling or running lean because you ecu cannot measure how much flow of air is passing through

what is, & what causes wastegate chatter?
omg, why dont you guys get this, that chattering noise is bad, very bad, i dont know about diesel engines so i cant comment on that but on a petrol it doesnt mean you have a boost leak or whatever it means: eigher the recircs are malfuctioning or your bov's are closing too quickly or you have fitted them backwards and blocked off the wrong pipe! when yyou let off the throttle on boost the excess air in the system has to go somewhere. Normally it would go through your standard recircs and back into the intake (recycled if you will). If there is a problem like the ones said above the air doesn't have anywhere to go and will try to escape back through the turbo (which is still spinning one way) and forces it to stop spinning so it can escape, which is the noise you can hear (wastegate chatter/turbo chatter). It is causing wear on the blades and should be avoided unless you want crappy turbo's. When they say that it is caused when the boost is turned up its because standard recircs can only handle so much air and are usually made from plastic. The zeds recircs are very good metal items and can handle alot of boost HTH
