Me realizing @Malingerer actually sent me money. Now I really gotta go dyno this thing
Seriously though dude super generous of you! Thanks so much!

Be careful what you wish for

Forum talk - "GET YOUR CAR ON A DYNO AND SEE WHAT IT'S MAKING!!" , "Yeah?!, You think I got the monies to dyno for your own curiosities?!" - "Here's 100 bucks, DYNO!" , "Well... damn, Okay."

No luck today as they don’t have a Tech available to run the dyno. I did however get an appointment for next Saturday at noon.

Ok Google set a reminder for next Saturday at 2pm.

I will definitely record it but not sure it will be live.

To Arin and the others that already have this turbo, I just installed wastegate Actuator and noticed that the arm, the rod screws into, the pin is so tight that I’m not sure the actaator will be strong enough to move it. It take a lot of my pressure to move it by hand.
As I watch wastegate adaptation videos other arms are just flapping around.

Dumb question, you did remove the safety wire that keeps the waste gate from moving right?

Mine had a zip tie to keep it from moving around while shipping

Pretty sure being as they made it a point to say the ball bearings were German, it almost certain the turbo is made in China. I think I have a defective unit as well as mine whistle exactly like a blown turbo.
