Right, another update. Pump arrived in the post today. Tested both actuators and me being me didn't think about the fact that the pump I bought being a cheapo one didn't have much resolution on the pressure gauge at all. Basically it starts at about 20 psi so all I know is that both actuators work and they are all fully extended by 20 psi by about 1.5 cm each.
So they are both pretty much comparable and as I am going to be running an MBC so I guess the pressure doesn't matter at all, it would only be if they didn't move until 30 psi or something that I would be in the shit because I will be running 25 psi max on this setup.
However, I have tested the wastegate arm and it appears to have about 4 centimetres of travel from fully shut to fully open? Or is most of that just redundant travel? Because as said the actuator arms only seem to move about 1.5cm each.
Right, pictures of testing below:
Next thing to do is to get a bracket welded up and sort out the exhaust elbow.
