Product Description :
You will now be able to fine tune your turbo wastegate to the exact needs of your engine with this complete tuning kit.
In your actuator tuning kit you will find either four or five springs (depending on your wastegate) and the associated spring retainer. The strongest spring is red, followed by blue, yellow and finally green which is the weakest.
Please select from the options above if you require this kit for a 048 or 049 actuator. 048 wastegates are those with a large body, 049 actuators are those with a standard size body.
049 piston wastegates and 049 diaphragm actuators use the same springs.
Spring color codes and their operating pressures are shown below.
T2 049 Wastegate Springs (Small) (Piston and Diaphragm Type 049):
Green – 10 psi (0.7 bar)
Purple - 13 psi (0.9 bar)
Yellow - 15 psi (1.0 bar)
Blue – 18 psi (1.2 bar)
Red - 20 psi (1.4 bar)
T3 048 wastegate springs (large):
Green - 10 psi (0.7 bar)
Yellow - 12.5 psi (0.9 bar)
Blue - 17 psi (1.2 bar)
Red - 18 psi (1.3 bar)
We normally supply our wastegates, unless otherwise requested, with a spring that matches the tension of the manufacturer's original fitting valve. However, as many owners undertake tuning changes, some may wish to readjust the characteristics of the actuator to suit a given application.
Note: Serious damage or death can occur to the engine and associated components if this product is not properly matched to the individual engine requirements. Forge Motorsport nor any of its authorized distributors can assume any liability for any adverse effects resulting from the installation of this product.
These kits do NOT fit our diesel actuator for Garrett VNT turbos.
