Yesterday I clocked the turbo and checked the actuator: feels like a 7 psi unit.
I also began to weld a new manifold to head flange because mine is warped, and there's a little leak even whith a new oem gasket..
The only issue: oil line.
I need to connect somehow an 8mm copper pipe to the restrictor.
This is what I could find
Terrible, isn't it?
And heavy as hell.

Yes, if you watch the first two pages of this topic, you can see my feed line.
Sixshooter: I know that... the restrictor itself is brass.
I'm finding a different solution, but it's difficult to find npt stuff in Italy

Today I began to work
I found why everyday the boost was a little bit less: the wastegate couldn't close completely.
The flapper was slightly bent:
properly made shaft:
turbine housing differences:

More progress:
Now, first impressions: it feels slower over 5500-6000 rpm at the same pressure of the chrubo potato, but well.. it's very very funny to drive!
first two gears are just a spin button, the third gear spin the tire a little bit, but enough to false the virtualdyno log (around 270hp at 210kPa)
Now, time to tune this... thing.
I'm in doubt about the advance table: I've modified (internet inspirated) my table this way
What does it seems??

What kind of wrap, and what are those metal ties you used to clamp the ends tight?

The ties... they comes with the wrap
News: I tried the new advance table for like one gear, and it knocked... back to the previous one for now.
I also destroyed the compressor wheel, now the turbo is at the rebuild shop
