« on: 04 April 2012, 13:03 »
Wastegate actuator,

I have fcuked about with it, now I "think" it is in the correct position but is there a definate way to set this up from scratch?

Or, what should i be looking for on vagcom when logging to ensure ive got it right.

Thats the way i set my forge actuator up with advice from Nick with 3 turns.
Lower duty cycle will always be better, this means that the N75 valve is having to work less hard to meet the required boost.
