Tial Gate Issues..

[Simon-S14]

have had overboosting issues lately when running high boost mode (22 psi normally) has been hitting map limit (26psi) and then ecu protecting but cutting (Link G4 plus) boost is fine on low boost. so anyway i thought i better pull the Tial 44mm gate i have down and check over it.

turns out.. its got a hole in it, cause by an assembly error from factory. the diaphragm has been pinched where the cap seals and as a result of it being run like that for 3 years (thats how old it is) has moulded the rubber together.. and caused a hole just below it.! quality stuff.

So can i get replacement Diaphrams somewhere? also i noticed the valve is quite loose in the valve guide.. can this be replaced also? or is it time for a new one.
