    Talking Uprated actuator

    Well it arrived today!!!

    Can I just fit it and uprate the boost? or do I need to remove the airflow restrictor in the pipe as well?

    Sorry for all the questions, I just don't want to fcuk up my car....

    I have an uprated acuator and I am not sure what airflow restrictor you mean.

    I just swapped them around and wound up the arm till I got to 15psi.
    So you do need a boost meter, without one you may be running too much boost for your set up.

    But I am no expert

    Yeah, I've got a boost gauge.........

    The airflow restrictor is what people remove for the FBU..

    No need to mess with the brass restrictor if you fit an uprated actuator. Just fit the acutator and adjust the rod quite long to start with working shorter gradually. You don't wanna start at 19psi!

    You do have a boost gauge, right?
