23PSI

Nah, I was only stirring shit - all good mate - hope you get a swap - and make sure you come out for a cruise before I go mate.

Oi, I got a GFB BOV - How about you give me a knock on the door punk

Someone organise somfin - I m bored shietless - who is keen right now who is on this thread to meet?

Take it back to the workshop that did the work

Do you have a t-piece for a boost gauge? check that - mine has split a couple of times and makes a high pitch squeel when it does - but i do notice a drop in boost pressure when that happens. maybe check intake manifold aswell? Not really sure what it could be.

Sweet, Appreciate your help.

Hey Dale, Don't know what you are on about with this manners crap but if you have miss interpreted my post I apologise - what I was trying to say was that I appreciate the knowledge of the people on this forum and the information they can give me to assist in the solving of the problems I have with my vehicle. Get me now?

Yeh, I had to get a de-tune because coil packs were shorting when I was running 12-13 PSI around 245 RwkW so I de-tuned then got splitfires and installed. Then this actuator crap started and I was loosing pressure through the wastegate because of this friggen actuator - so i took a hammer and jemmi bar to the friggen thing to bend the rod and that then put enough pressure on the wastegate to keep it closed - so I am not loosing pressure anymore - but still is very laggy. I think maybe whatever pressure valve or thing that is activated to open the wastegate (maybe springs or something) are stuffed and sometimes she really comes on and other times it really goes like a bag of puss. Anyways I will buy a Stock actuator (Manhore) and see what improvement that gives me. Next friggen question for you bloody wizz kids.... How do you get the friggen actuator off?

Sliding Hi-Flow..... I will replace the actuator just trying to establish if I should get a stock one or get HKS or something else that is aftermarket - only thing is I will need a re-tune if I get aftermarket and that sux. And from the stock point of view want to make sure the thing is reliable.

GO TO CARLOVERS OR SIMILAR YOU CHEAP SKATES

Brand new internals for the turbo - nothing that has not been replaced. Are the hi-flow turbos normally quite laggy or is that a myth?

Hey there, I have an issue with the amount of lag and boost spike. I have had hi-flow turbo for rb25 installed. I have a rattle in the turbo - which I have discovered to be the waste gate flap hanging open due to a problem with the actuator. - Mercury told me that my actuator was stuffed - which it may be. I bent the actuator rod slightly to bring tension on the wastegate flap. I have noticed a slight improvement in building boost but I am only on around 7 PSI at around 3500 RPM. Which to me is pretty laggy. I have a bleed valve boost controller doo daddy and boost is set to 10 PSI. I checked that the bleed valve was not installed incorrectly - it looks fine. Besides the actuator, what other issues could their be that make the boost spool so laggy? Tune? Can't be turbo - it is practically brand new, any other ideas? Vaccume Leaks - Had smoke test done no leaks at all. HELP ME!!!

Would pay someone $20 for a stock turbo actuator i good condition.

I would say that the boys who are telling you it is the Actuator rod are absolutely correct, I had exactly the same problem after a hi-flow from Sliding - I also had sliding change the crack pressure on the actuator aswell. Naturally I was fairly surprised that their was a rattle after he had actually worked on the actuator. Thus when I was looking for the rattle - in similar fashion to old mate who posted this - disconnected pipe from dump to hi-flow cat and was hopeing to find remnants of the stock turbo - to no evail. I then decided to smack the rod with a hammer a few times - nothing - then got a jemmi bar levered off the block to slightly bend the rod - now the rattle has gone and their is no issue with the noise - though I do find the hi-flow to be quite laggy - which as I have read by others is fairly common with hi-flow turbs. Anyways Don't normally post much but this was just to similar to the situation I was in recently and couldn't help but reply. Cya
