Wastegate question.

pat@forge · 05-11-2009, 09:51 AM

Anyone have a set they can part with for a few weeks? Can be bad...

We are definitely giving it a think... We would need a set of actuators with brackets and turnbuckles. Doesn't matter if they've failed or not.

Aren't you asking for a set of actuators instead of wastegates?
If you need the wastegates then we would have to give you the exhaust manifolds.

I'm replacing my rear actuator this weekend and you can have the old one.

I have my old actuator as well. You pay for shipping and i will give it to you. Or you can purchase them new, they are $35 each at your local dealer.

Actually I was abbreviating the term "wastegate actuator" to "wastegate"...

I saw that price posted and assumed it was a typo. I think we'll just order a set.

Yeah, that is crazy cheap. I do have a set though if you need to check them out.
