Smile Waste Gate Actuator photo

Hi There
Does anyone have a photo of the posistion of the Waste Gate Actuator from a Greedy Turbo kit, while sitting in posistion on the car.
Maybe a photo taken with the right front wheel off the car and taken looking through the wheel arch looking at the posistion where the Actuator is.
Thanks any help with this would be great.

Thanks for that,
How much space between the Actuator and the side wall of the car? How much bigger in diameter Actuator could you fit in there do you think?
Thanks

that is all going to depend.

you'll need to fabricate a bracket for any other actuator you decide to go with so you can alter its position slightly. ie. angle it away from the lower frame, move the diaphragm further out, etc.

this isnt on the car but its placed all together so you can get a good idea of what it should look like **its too tight and close to the side wall/frame of the car to get a good picture of the wastegate
