I was hoping someone can point me in the right direction. My wastegate actuator went bad and Im having a hard time tracking one down. Two dealerships have informed me that they do not sell it separately and I would have to buy a complete turbo assembly.

I have also been all over the interwebs, I just want an OEM part or one that is a direct bolt in needing no modifications.

Thanks in advance for your assistance!

 

Unfortunately I was never able to find one. I bought a turbo mart unit for the evolution and modified it to work, then fine tuned the springs to do what's I needed

 

What type of modifications did you have to make?

 

Had to shorten the actuation rod about an inch, and tap the knuckle deeper. A local machine shop wouldn't charge much to do thatthe thread size is 1/4-27. I bought the 24 psi because it came with a 3,10, and 11 lb sting set which I ended up using to run 13 lb....even though I'm running 24 # peak boost

 

If you want to go a bit further afield, I guess you could give GT Pumps a call here in Australia. I know they do "stock Evo X TD05" style wastegate actuators, as I've got one of theirs on my car. However, I'm not sure what the score is with Ralliart TD04 fitment.

It can't hurt to ask, though.

Were you ever able to find one?

 

Are they electronic?

 

I was never able to find one and am getting ready to buy the Turbo Smart for the Evo and have it modified.

Sorry for the delay, I travel 95% of the time for work and the car has been sitting almost a year now. A waste, I know.
