i wouldn't touch it mate. actuators are set by factory to a specific pressure, they will always open close at the same boost level. if you want to adjust the boost, you need to bleed the air thats going to the actuator. by doing this you're essentially tricking it to hold the wastegate closed for longer, therefore higher boost level. cheap ebay bleed valve is 30bux and will do the job.

in my opinion the adjustment on the rod is simly to set it up initially so at nil pressure the wastegate is completely closed.

that just my understanding so take it as you may. :)

ideally you'd set it up so that it opens just far enough to hold your desired boost, that way it'll open later and bring boost on earlier. winding it in will increase the pre tension and raise boost a little bit but not much. always be careful and keep a close eye on boost.

your best bet for boost control would be a turbotech mbc

OK?

I have the turbo tech boost controller and have tryed to adj it but it only goes to 7psi (will creep to 10 psi) but thats it.

    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House  
    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
