Forge Acuator Replacing My Crappy Weak One Soon.......

[Grand Master Patch]

Hey Nick,have you ever done one of these on a baby k03s before?
Would the map need tweaking to suit,or is it a case of trial and error

Hello,

Fitted 100s of Acuators & external wastes gates, but never a Forge one to a KO3s..

We will get it back on the dyno and do some external logging and map tweaks to make sure your getting the best from your car.

I am looking forward to getting it running spot on and boostinh right.

It runs pretty damm good now,just missing the extra few torques lower down.

Am i right in thinking that these uprated actuators allow the boost to stay high right up to redline,or would that be pushing the turbo beyond it's capabilities?

[RTechUK]

Setup wrong  and over tight they can strain the turbo, we need to aim for a setup the same as the oem setup.  We will use the tool which we tested the Forge 007p with to get it adjusted right.

just been told it's a turbo-off job to swap the actuator

After a conversation with Nick,it might be possible without removing the turbo after all.Charge pipe off and 3 bolts holing the turbo to manifold might just give enough room,fingers crossed......

If it's a full turbo off Job i think i'll wait another 3K and and do it then(new gaskets/oil/water/manifold bolts etc....)

Nicks going to try adjusting my std actuator first,if that gives good results it saves me money and his time.

I need to speak to Nick more on the day,but from what i can see well over 25psi can be had....
