Do you have the dyno sheet with RPM based? Or does anyone know how to convert it over?

I guess all the turbos are going to get tweaked actautors. If you guys want more boost, you got it!

Hey Bryan, did you see my post about the turbo making noises after a couple pulls on the dyno? It only seems to do it in low load situations, and at idle. It sounds like a chattering bird until it starts to spool. Seems to run ok, but the noise is pretty embarassing driving through a parking lot!! Is there something I should look for?

Nah, mine doesnt sound like that. Mine sounds like more of a knock, or a chatter. Ill try and get some video of it this weekend but its hard to pick up. I can hear it better than anyone cause I know its not supposed to be there. Hopefully thr camera will pick it up.

At a guess I'd say he just tightened up the rod end as far as he could without removing the nut .
On my setup that got me a constant 7 psi - from memory . Why don't you climb under and have a look . If you cant see any thread on the arm - that is what he has done .
Would be worth doing to clarify what the deal is ....

Are you running on the greddy intercooler or something aftermarket? Some aftermarket boost controllers need a .060" restrictor pill between the boost source and the solenoid. This will keep you from out flowing your solenoid which is a common problem with controllers not doing the job. When you do that, reset the controller then turn it up.

My friend is having a hard time remembering the data I need from him so I'm not sure exactly what he and Steve Kan did to fix the actuator problem. I however just picked up his dyno sheet and I'm going to scan it after work. Higher middle 300rwhp on a mustang dyno if I remembered correctly.

Looks like it's in 5th gear, since there is no shifting and the gear ratio is constant, rpm v. speed should be linear. As soon as I drive home I can make a rough (very rough) estimate because I don't have the raw data.
