Sorry mate how could i forget last years SAU dyno winner.

So that makes 5 anyone else?

I was in until I checked what boost the car was holding (found it was down to mid 16psi) so fiddled with the actuator and broke the arm.

Rewelded the arm and then lost the custom made section that screws on to the actuators arm.

Not going to make another for the lazy 1bar actuator.

Picking up a 19psi actuator from MTQ tomorrow but don't like the chances of welding up another custom rod and then giving it a quick street tune in time.

Either way if the car is ready in time or not I'll be there.

im still running the 18 actuator,

i took it to shaun on tuesday but when everthing is hot as hell its a joke to even contemplate getting in there.

so i wil change it in a few weeks when i have 2 hands again.

Its all good buddy.

Popped down to MTQ today and checked out the 19psi actuator. The seat pressure felt a tad soft and not much if any more than the 1bar actuator. Testing it she cracked off the seat around 12psi.

I checked out the slightly more expensive 14psi Large can and MFG I can't even lift the thing off its seat.

The larger can has a spring that is a shit load stiffer as the diaphram is larger so more surface area etc etc.

I went with that as it will hold against the flap pushing open much better.

Now to try and squeeze it in.

i would enter but my car needs a tune :s

and im scared something will break haha

[Krishy]

So whens the tune ? No later than tomorrow i would hope

[Madaz]

no no tune Krishy kindly lent me my old PFC so will run with that and at least crack 210ish should be more cause im trying to wind to boost up safely

unfortunately it was tuned on 10psi so 15psi see's it leaning out a little @ high rpm

anyone know how to road tune

oh also added 600rpm and it goes like a freight train when boost hits

watch your knock count on the hand controller dude.........keep it under 60 when boosting

[Cubes]

Steve,

I'd be super careful on 1bar. 1bar 'should' be up around 240rwkwish and the injectors are only 370cc so only good for a little over 200rwkw before they are max'd and afr's start heading north.

On a side note here's my fat actuator. No more boost drop for me

Its mounted, bracket modded rod shortened etc now just have to cut and weld the screw on section that attaches the wastegate.

[Madaz]

yeah will do guys i will double check the boost controller because it was set to the lowest and goes straight to about 15-16 on my gauge but my gauge is inaccurate by about 2psi

so will try it in the other way tomorrow or get rid of it
