My wastegate is bad. Does anyone know if the FP or any other brand fits? Ive searched and the only thing I found was back in 10' about a 25 psi actuator was to stiff and he went to a 18. Put there was no brand??? And I dint really wanna get an hks. So if anyone has knowledge of this please share thank you.
Please dont ask me am I sure its broke.IT IS! LOL

 

Anyone?

 

not even close to same as evo 8 or 9.

 

??? Close to what?

 

meaning its no where near a direct bolt on.

 

I thought that due to early complaints and failures with the 7460's original actuator, HKS had worked the bugs out of their design and now offered an improved version.

 

Hmmm I might have to look into that

 

problem with this type of thread is we dont know what is wrong with his actuator. just that "it is broke" all the actuator problems wiith this turbo have been related to the arm in the housing wearing. constant readjustment of wastegate needed, ending with flapper valve that wont seat on the seat due to excessive wear. I have one hear that I fixed. but dont know how long it will work until its put back in service.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Amen^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

Nothing wrong with thread You gotta read it... Seems others get what im asking.
Cliff notes:
Bad wastegate
Does FP sell actuators that fit or other brands?
Dont ask if its broke, it is.

I see nothing wrong with THIS thread. Your going off other peoples expierence with the actuator/wastegate failing and the flapper(not mine)Like I said mine clearly broke, no failure. Im asking if there is a fp actuator or other brand. Thank you.

 

This is lol's

'MURICA!

 

Talk to FP they said theres should be direct replacement. Lol we will see about that.

 

It has two big kicks in it, between the mounting location and the flapper arm.
Stock one won't come close.

Order another HKS gate and Loctite the crap out of it!

 

Repeat post.

 

Is the actuator rod broken? It is a multipiece rod, right? Post up some pics illustrsting problem area(s).
