Question:
Is there anywhere we can buy the upgraded actuators for the GReddy openly? I know you (MM), and Brian at BNR make some good fits - but is it available to us who didn't order the 3071 upgrade or the BNR upgrade?

Put it on the new build and the bearings were making some whirling noises about a day after I installed it, and then stopped completely...
End result: No boost, bearing(s) seized, turbine broke off
lots and lots and lots of smoke lol. I suggest taking it off before it seizes completely

/\ what sized restrictor did you use ?
How was your drain configured ?
What BOV were you using and was it preventing surge ?
Like I said in my first post I have over 40000kms and still going strong .
If you get a failure that quickly you have to look at the design of your system .

Using a TiAL Q
I'm going to say it was my fault for not thoroughly checking the turbo after I had removed it from the previous engine

restrictor should be 0.05 - 0.065 apparently .
Is your BOV vent to atmos ? Does it effectively eliminate surge at low rpm ?
Do you know what boost is in the charge pipe at part throttle ?

No I don't, but I have the boost tee'd off at the compressor outlet for the wastegate. Also have a boost controller
FWIW, it's running great
