<< < (2/4) > >>

tjsj:
ok cheers for that

extreme90:
they do fit and a few people have done it
ive looked into it but i couldnt be arsed messing around with it
if you want more power out of your 200 fit a 300 actuator to your turbo and and youll be able to run alot more boost
or just open you origional actuator up

tjsj:
o ok, sounds like a good idea. is it easy to do?? how do you open the original one up and also do you know how much an actuator costs from  300 ??

No offence dude but if you have to ask on here i wouldnt advise you doing it,

Ive poped the headgasket on mine by running to much boost & its easily done :wink:

Porny:
I'm confused....

If you shorten the actuator you'll be getting exactly the same boost as a 300tdi... so why bother running a 300Tdi actuator??

If you want better boost control get a better aftermarket actuator, or a decent boost controller ( :wink: ).  
And if you want more than 1 bar your better off looking for a hybrid turbo too!

And take Mikes coments on board.  :wink:

If you limit yourself to 1 bar you'll be ok (most of the time) - I've ran numerous 200Tdi's at 1 bar without a problem - start going much higher and you will/might have HG problems!!

But more boost is pointless (virtually) without tweaking the pump for more fuel.
