To increase boost do you shorten or lengthen the actuator rod??

shorten my friend move the bolts closer to the actuator.

Many thanks my friend
be careful upping the boost without checking the fueling
this is where so many people go wrong and kill the engine
i thought the flap (in turbo) that the acuator rod controls had to be completely shut, this is when the rod is wound right in, running minimum boost....
...can anyone help?
when the turbo is spooling the wastegate will be closed and the gasses will pass through the turbine creating boostOriginally Posted by OUTLAW
when the boost reaches the limit set by your actuator the waste gate will open allowing some gasses to bypass the turbine thus not allowing it to create anymore boost above limit you have set
the spring in the actuator holds the gate closed sortening the rod increases the preload thus creating more boost
dont just wind up the boost or it will all go tits up
(wheres the bomb smillie and can someone post the headgasket part no)
theres no bombs boss
....would you suggest that the flap is fully opened before i install the new turbo? the rod will be fully extended, if so
The wastegate needs to be closed pre spool, otherwise the turbo will be incredibley laggy. Read, what's been written above, it's not rocket science
when you put the new turbo on the actuator will shut the wastgate its self and open it up at your max boost limit
cheers guys, thanks....
