Message	the EBC attenuates the boost pressure seen by the actuator. The actuator spring can be forced open by the pressure in the exhaust manifold, esp. when there is a large wastegate flapper as there is on the sport 530 ********************************************************* Joe GT675RS/Inconel AIM: hoyatiger81 "You probably never even got you hands dirty working on a car.

HKS actuators. (n/m) - YugoBernie (NoVA) 08:48:04 08/08/06 Maybe I can squeze in there and readjust the actuators - Spectrum (WI) 21:58:00 08/07/06 They can be adjusted to hit more boost - 23-24 should - boileralum 22:07:59 08/07/06 agreed, tune in small steps, dyno time is cheap compared - Spectrum (WI) 22:15:33 08/07/06 How many turns would you suggest to adjust the actuators? - Spectrum (WI) 22:24:13 08/07/06 did you mean adjusting the base psi? (n/m) - 23rulz 00:00:26 08/08/06 Yes. The pressure they open with on the bench when - boileralum 11:43:49 08/08/06 hi joe, did you get my email?
