17410, wastegate for HRC II
Posted by mitsudsr, Mar-11-02 04:18 AM
I was woundering if the install of the wastegate for the HRC II kit was as easy as it looks. You just bolt it on, and refit the hose onto the fitting. Boost up the fuel pressure and test drive. My directions are not clear on what to do so I am just assumeing please tell me if I am wrong.
Thanks for the help,
Patrick

ALL turbosystems have wastegates (except VVT turbos, which are high dollar and computer controlled, but anyway).

The HRC system uses an internal wastegate. It should come already on the turbo, and i would be suprised if it did not.

Are you asking about changing the actuator spring/actuator system out with a higher rated actuator or spring? If so, yeah, you just unbolt the actuator, take the cotter pin out of the actuator arm, remove the whole deal, bolt the new one up, retune. Nothing to it.
