Whats best is that i get £50 worth of cleaning stuff for a track car lol! sorry i dnt understand this bit? cleaning and track car should never be seen in the same sentance lol

pmt ftw ;)

then you did it the wrong way lol, wind it in the other direction = more boost, but make sure you get the mapping done at the same time otherwise engine number 2 will be on its way too

eh? you can go 2 ways, you wind the rod tighter so that you get more boost, or you push it further away so you get less, other thing is if youve got a w4nk actuator the spring might be soft. you cant wind it tighter and make the wastegate open up sooner just not possible

how did you loose power adjusting the actuator rod? unless you wound it the wrong way?
