Reply With QuoteSo an adjustable wastegate from Kinugawa will cost NZD$210 delivered, so what would a turbo pressure plate cost? Can anyone chuck me a part number whilst I have a search?

In the interest of science (and for the supplier of the turbo) we wound the fuel up to 3.5 turns to find max boost of the turbo.
Unfortunately any amount of throttle caused the clutch to slip from 18+ PSI (even less when the clutch got warm). So back to tuning for the forest.
Unfortunately, again, it turns out the factory crimps the wastegate actuator onto the threaded rod. Needless to say, we broke it.
After a bit of faffing around we cut a bolt and used a few nuts and reattach the wastegate to find the spring can't handle more then 8 PSI. Ha.
So, aftermarket wastegate time. Hopefully I can source one before the 13th (which is the next trip to the forest).

They are a mongrel to bleed. I tried reverse bleeding and worked better, but not as well as it should. I ended up removing the slave cylinder and made sure the bleed screw was at the top and then bleed it and then put the slave back on the car.

Hey rovernutter, thanks for the tip. When I replaced the slave a few months back I reverse bled it and it worked perfect first time. I'm curios how you got the slave higher then the master haha, is your line flexi all the way back to the master?

What spring is in the new wastegate actuator?

What ever you want Damian, you can choose from a drop down box.

Sorry, I meant what did you choose?
I have a kinugawa Turbo with the 22psi spring
The reverse bleed seemed to get any air out of the line, but the bleed nipple on the slave is not at the top and I was sure that there was air still trapped in the cylinder. So i removed the slave, pumped the peddle a few times so that the cylinder came out, but not enough to come all the way out. Then I would loosen the bleed nipple and push the cylinder back in. That would force any air down there out the bleed nipple and not back up the line. Did this a couple of times. Got a lot better peddle afterwards.
I did not raise it any higher than the flexi hose would allow.

Ah sorry, I haven't ordered one yet. Its a. Expensive option.
