Wastegate actuator
 
WTB actuator for external gate TD04 to replace greddy actuator, most any T25/28 actuator should work, probably others too. Preferably with bracket included. Most anything opening pressure is fine, 6-12 psi. I know some of you guys have extra parts from junk turbos laying around. If so, hook it up.

I think I have the actuator you need. You can have it for $10 shipped. It's new Mitsubishi just an extra. I'll send you pics just email and remind me.

Ben 08-31-2007 09:59 AM

cool, as long as it isn't the same can I already have, sounds like a weiner

That the right one?

I'm also looking for a replacement wastegate actuator for my Greddy internal gate on my TD04. I would be curious to know if this one fits for you.

lazzer408 09-14-2007 04:38 PM

I dunno he never answered me.

Ben 09-14-2007 07:50 PM

Oh

Lazzer, I need it. Please send it my way. :)

lazzer408 09-14-2007 08:39 PM

If it looks like the right one paypal $10 to lazzer408@yahoo.com

I got them free from Nester. Your just covering my packing and shipping. =)

nester 09-15-2007 05:00 PM

and I have 4 more of them here..


I'm still working on your insurance claim with UPS too.. they LOST 3 of my packages this week.. I'm extremely impressed.. LOST THEM.. jeez.

Ben 09-15-2007 05:25 PM

I feel your pain man. I try to never use UPS anymore.

What are those actuators? Is it any better than what I got now (stock greddy)? Cuz I can't hold boost to redline....

nester 09-15-2007 07:13 PM

They are off a big 16g.

When the wg actuator fails it won't open the wg and you'd build too much boost. It could be binding though. Did you check the actuator arm and make sure it's straight going into the actuator? If it's cocked to the side it can stick holding the wg open. Just a though.

Are they still making you jump thru hoops? What happened to that oil line? Did you send it out?

nester 09-15-2007 10:58 PM

They are supposed to pay out by the end of the month. I had to call a mazda dealer and have them fax a quote for the valve cover.. so i could fax it to ups..

The oil supply line is bent and kinked, I'll send it to you, but you may have to do some repair to make it work.

Mach929 09-16-2007 12:07 AM

the greddy wastegate can is weak, i have a helper spring one mine and with my mbc i still can't hold steady boost to redline, right now it goes to 14.6psi it's dropping to around 13psi at about 6000rpm and less by redline. but that actuator you've got pictured there may be difficult to work with since it looks permanently attached to that bracket and the rod has a bend in it where the greddy setup is straight.

lazzer408 09-16-2007 01:28 AM

It's fused to the bracket.

kotomile 09-16-2007 01:52 AM

FM has a replacement, IIRC it's sold as a universal and doesn't have any funky bracketry. I think it's rated for 5-7 psi, adjustable.

Mach929 09-16-2007 10:31 AM

i've been looking for a decent priced one, will that fm one hold higher boost steady? i don't want to waste money on it if not. I've seen the hks one all over ebay, i think it probably works fine but it's around $100.

clay 09-20-2007 03:40 PM

Yeah, I'm looking to replace my Greddy actuator with the adjustable one from FM. I'm just hoping it will go on the "Deal of the Day" soon so I can get it for less...

lazzer408 09-20-2007 03:49 PM

Just a question. Are you guys running the wg line to the intake manifold in hopes to regain that 1lb loss thru the IC? If so that's how your having premature wg failures.
