No need to go to the bother of typing that out either:

I would be immensly greatful if you could stop making me look stupid

You should be ok up to 10, maybe 12psi. Beyond that you need to look at chips, bigger injectors, raising the fuel pressure, etc. There's plenty of info on Turbobricks. cheers James just joined turbobricks there now, and used you as a referral 8) now to read through the forum's, and ask for more def...

am I the only one that dislikes the automatic-bit about it..?

dammit...never scroll down the page on the reply screen....

please excuse me, I have to hide in shame lol

I suspected as much. Surely Volvo HPT actuators for a 13c aren't that rare...? cheers James over the pond in Ireland 940's aren't exactly commonplace in the scrappie's :( If You need actuator, PM me!! PM on the way... btw I assume its an actuator for a higher PSI boost, will the ECU from the B230FK...

@foggyjames: if its a TD04 turbo I'm looking for, couldn't I also try getting a standard Impreza WRX actuator, as they have a TD04 standard VS the Evolution with a TD05..?

was just thinking the other day that I might leave the HPT actuator for another while...stil welded up the diff on tuesday, time to smoke some tyres :D:D

which IMO is awkward.some other forum's I use use Vbulletin (or something similar) and they all have a "quote" and a "multiquote" button....making it a lot easier

hmm, sounds good to me!!!more smoke off the tyres, which will last even shorter...

"HPT" car?? please explain, I'm simple LOL :roll: High Pressure Turbo. There were two versions of the engine, one was restricted. By fitting the higher pressure actuator you'd have the power of an HPT. and you also explain where I am to put a bleed valve, and why...does it actually up the boost...?...

it might just be me being new enough to the site, but there isn't a multi-quote button..?

I use other forum's and most of them have it, very handy IMO and might be worth getting..?

I just meant an actuator off a HPT car.. which will basically be free under £10 from a breaker! Manual Boost Controller for about £40, well worth the expense for the gains!! "HPT" car?? please explain, I'm simple LOL :roll: Bleed valve on actuator pipe, anyone? :D and you also explain where I am to...

@classicswede AND SteveP:

I would, but for a €250 "messing-car" I dont wanna spend money on an adjustable actuator...(or bent the rod of the standard one either...)

ok, have the engine code.
and it is indeed the B230FK, and for €250 I'm fairly happy to get such a car.now just got to sort out some diffin wheels, and lots and lots of tyres :D:D
