Stronger and will hold higher boost without EBC

Garrett -5 ones crack off the seat at 15.5psi so obviously that's the minimum boost pressure before adjusting anything what's the crack pressure for the HKS items?

I assumed it would be the same.?

[mr skidz]

Hey charl whats the minimum boost pressure you can run on the ss turbos with the boost controller off?

[Hadouken]

Probably 1 bar (if the actuator is 1 bar)

[mr skidz]

So theres 0 difference

Looks like I'm wrong then *shrug*

Don't be so modest.

The garrets sometimes come with 9 psi actuators so that is why there might be some confusion. But everyone knows to get 1 bar actuators

Thanks guys

Also the garret turbos have plastic bearing cages and the hks ones have metal ones

not any more -5 use ceramic ball bearings with metal cage identical to gtx series but you already knew that.

[r32-25t]

What about the -7 and 9 mr expert?

[mr skidz]

Not sure I won't comment on subjects I know little about

If you speak to garrett they will even recomend the hks over their heavy duty actuators, coming from ross at qld garrett, the garrett actuator pressure is a guide only as they can start to open at as little as 8psi. Food for thought glws

my ones just lift off the seat at 15.5 as I check them the other day

[mr skidz]

And that's before I adjusted them

[macautomotive]

Its a guide got any beef speak to the professionals ie the people at garrett who sell/supply them

[mr skidz]

Got any beef?

Why would someone have beef with an actuator? Mine work great. Just saying

[mr skidz]

In all honesty we'd know more about these turbos than the turbo distributors they literally receive a box then hand you the box and they had no idea about something on my waste gate actuator until I pointed it out to them 2 days ago so just because they sell them it doesn't make them experts

Really? You know more about garrett turbos than every garrett representative in aus! Sounds like you may have come across 1 or 2 that were vague. Its just some knowledge i came across and was worth sharing to help aid seller. I respect your wisdom in fact i would be interested in knowing how much boost you run and for how too just for shits and giggles if your ok with that. Would be much appreciated

[mr skidz]

No worries
