Title: boost fluctuation?
Post by: 88turbo on May 14, 2007, 10:56:01 PM
when accelerating to highway speed my boost fluctuates from 18psi to 10 back to 18 and so on.  I am running an adjustable actuator only.  do I need to adjust it alittle to hold the wastegate closed more tightly?

Tighten it more tightly, and use a manual boost controller.
