Standard Turbo Waste Gate Actuator Setting

[BLK33T]

how many psi (bar) is the standard r33 S1 turbo wastegate actuator set at ...

all I want is a cheap, reliable 10psi (street use only car) until i can afford a decent EBC + ecu/tune

or does anyone have any suggestions

[R34GTFOUR]

the wastegate actuator is around the 7psi, but if you have a full turbo back exhaust you may get around the 8-9psi mark

Although my bros gets 7psi with no boost controller and he has a turbo back exhaust

Get a decent boost gauge (not a defi copy) so you know what boost you are actually running, and if you only want around 10psi get a turbosmart bleed valve or a gfb atomic boost controller (no more than 80bucks) and that will do the job nicely untill you can afford a ebc.

The stadnard wastegate actuator is actually 4.5 psi (on my standard car with the two stage bleeder disconnected).

If you want an 11 psi actuator, I've got one. Bolts straight on

thanxs R34GTFOUR

sounds good MANWHORE ...

PM me the details

really?!

im pretty sure its 5psi low, and 7psi high boost. and if you have a/m zorst etc, it might even be a little higher.

im no expert on the issue, but ive heard that from just about everywhere.

i havent got a gauge on mine, but its quite obviously more than 4.5psi. the power surge and the racket the damn thing makes when it blows off!

the stock boost level can vary from skyline to skyline, things like different mods can make a huge difference

My bros runs 7psi with nothing connect but a vaccum line (he normally runs a bar through it), but either way you'll need some sort of boost controller to get to the magical 10psi mark and a simple bleed valve will do the job

well, as tested on my car and another r33, it was 4.5 psi (without the two stage bleeder).

On some, it might be 4, some might be 5, some might be 6, anything can happen

I thought it was around 7psi and about 9psi with an exhaust.

that's with the two stage connected

I'm about to fit up my new turbo back zorst (split front/dump pipe), fmic, apexi pod + heat sheild & CAI ...

What do you think boost will be with these modz?

I spose i wont know until I hook all this up what the boost is going to be but anything above standard without a retune of the ecu is going to cause my ecu to run rich isn't it?

Do you think reseting the factory ecu for now will suffice until I save enough to chip and tune the factory ecu? or should I crank out the credit card?

Hey MANWHORE how much you want for that actuator? PM me

Put a r32 stock actuator on it. I have one on my hi-flow and works a treat.

The r32 actuator is rated at 10psi.
