De-Wastgated T2? - Diggers - 28-04-2012
been offered a t2 but the actuator has been broken off. worth replacing it or welding the wastegate shut?
Re: De-Wastgated T2? - Dan! - 28-04-2012
Just replace it. Could easily get an actuator in your pocket at a scrapyard
Re: De-Wastgated T2? - 4WayDiablo - 28-04-2012
mine is effectivly dewastegated
its alright, fuel limits the boost
Re: De-Wastgated T2? - strictly_perv - 28-04-2012
The nipple broke off the actuator on mine so boost is controlled by fuel now like 4waydiablo's
Re: De-Wastgated T2? - Dave - 28-04-2012
De wastegate it, it'll be fine if you're running mild fuel anyway so wont overboost.
Re: De-Wastgated T2? - silverzx - 28-04-2012
+1 for de-wastegated T2 at 22~28 Psi (I tweak fuel + LDA a lot).
Re: De-Wastgated T2? - Dum-Dum - 29-04-2012
If your only on a 9mm pump DWG will be fine, the most mine would ever hit was 30psi.

That's because no one jammed the gate shut, it'll blow open with high Exhaust Mani pressure...

Thats what was happening with my td04.
The petrol wastegate just wasnt strong enough...now replaced with the spring from a 325tds actuator, much better

Arc welder boost control FTW

well..............its easy, 1) with actuator still in place weld around wastegate arm, 2) remove actuator, 3) enjoy lots of boost
It would be rude not to wouldn't it when its that easy

My actual gate is welded all way round!
Re: De-Wastgated T2? - Dave - 29-04-2012
No need to weld it all the way round, just pin it closed...

Just making sure
Re: De-Wastgated T2? - CJ_Derv - 29-04-2012
just wondering guys, My mate decided to disconnect the hose from turbo housing to actuator, and plugged it. but actuator is still connected and cant hit over 22pis could the wastegate be opening with exhaust pressure?
Never give this much though

Re: De-Wastgated T2? - Dave - 29-04-2012
Yeh the spring is either weaker than the exhaust pressure on the flap and giving way, or there isnt enough fuel
she smoking?

Posted wrong thread sorry

Oh yeah she smokes
Jamma helped me set her up so far and got Ground LDA pin can still get loads more fuel just never been able to boost over 22 since this been done and this thread just made me think ahhhh!?!?! lolCJ
Re: De-Wastgated T2? - Dave - 29-04-2012
Yeh thats more than likely whats happeneing, I know mine used to creep open whenever I was pushing 26+ psi.

Was just getting frustrated these last few weeks since got my love for my pug back and saw everyone boosting more than 22 and thinking hmmmm haha
Trip to pick the welder up tomoz
Re: De-Wastgated T2? - silverzx - 29-04-2012
Sure a bit of exhaust putty could do the same job?

Right on! Pikey XUD tuning ftw. :dance:
Re: De-Wastgated T2? - mark_airey - 29-04-2012
Just in case welding it shut isn't pikey enough for you

Re: De-Wastgated T2? - strictly_perv - 29-04-2012
Sounds like mines creeping open as it won't go past 27psi...owell, i'm getting a bigger blower on there soon
