I realize that it may not be toooooooooo noteworthy to some, But I just got my 20B in the mail today
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Had to throw the tails in for the hell of it. Question though, are the waste gate actuators on the 26 and 20B the same? I know I should just look my self, but the parts are out in my car and it's late I'll look tomorrow. my other question was about the fuel, do I need to use the FPR from the 540's in my car or is the existing sufficient? 2nd gen (existing FPR) to 3rd gen (new FPR) |

Aftermarket EGT, I have a bung in my down pipe for the UEGO. LONG story short it is in but the waste gate is not returning to the full closed position. The actuator rod is to long, the steel of the plate to move the position of the actuator is too thin and keeps flexing. So while I had it in I bent the bracket that the actuator sits on (or so I thought), during that time I got incredible boost (compared to the 26) at about 50% of the Turbos max output according to my boost controller. That output @ 50% was about 10-11 psi. Spool up was very smooth and quick, torque steer is off the map though (need an LSD, Be calling you soon Culp). Since then though the steel of the bracket and or it's holding plate has had a chance to relax again, sooooooooooooo... ...Tomorrow is another day. Tomorrow I will be either re-bending the rod to the specifications in how to, altering the bracket to allow for the rod length, or cutting and welding the rod to the proper length of I believe it is 7 3/8.
I have pictures and such but I refuse to post them until I am finished (it's bad luck IMO). I should be completely finished with the gremlins tomorrow. This post has been edited by Darkchylde: May 10, 2011 - 11:06 PM |
