I had the same kit on my 1g laser. Worked very well for me, and even the crappy knock off did okay. Looks great!!

Congrats on the intall. But how would a wastegate have anything to do with a boost leak test?!? Unless you mean the vacuum line to the wastegate.

i think the ebay one has internal damage, and sounds like air is coming from the rod. and its over boosting for line pressure

hit fuel cut last night and I know I saw 17psi. Pretty sure it went higher but was trying to watch the road at the same time. Scared the crap out of me when it cut!

Yea I guess if the diaphragm was broken in the wastegate acutator, didn't think of that. I was picturing an external gate for some reason.

Yeah, I've had the internal diaphragm rip before and there is no boost control and you got a big boost leak. I might have one for ya tomorrow poofy if that is in case the problem.

It looks like that flange will accept a 1g BOV? If you need one, I've got a crushed BOV that held 20psi for me.

Glad to hear good things about the CXRacing piping and intercooler. That is who I have been planning on ordering from for the sled.
