ps- its a vxt turbo unit and had a little remap done too, since replacing the intercooler to turbo hose it seems a bit sluggish now, as if needs more boost maybe ?

or, would a rolling road show any probs? as i can get to one in scunthorpe and test out ?
what do you all reckon ?

I would go back to the place that mapped it and ask them to have a look at it first.

You can tweak the actuator, it is seriously simple.

1. Look at the threaded shaft under the turbo heatshield, it will be poking out to the lower right direction
2. There will be 2 nuts on the shaft, with an arm sandwiched between them
3. Undo the top nut, the one furthest into the heatshield, lossen it then turn it maybe 1/2 threads.
4. Now tighten the other nut up towards the one you have just positioned, this will push the arm up with it - you will notice it has more resistance as it alters the load
5. Once tight start the car, let it idel to make sure no lights are on, then go for a drive

If it takes more than 10-15 minutes then you are doing the wrong nuts ! lol

alters when the boost come in a think(may be worng tho)

think its to do with how strong it starts etc.

personally a wouldnt touch it with a barge pole but then am a chicken shite when i comes to the boost settings on me car!

good luck

Scunthorpes a fart in the wind away from Norfolk, get it down to Courtenay and get them to sort it out.
