Re: MBC or Actuator?

Make sure the lines are zip tied too. They can pop open and lose pressure.

Re: MBC or Actuator?

to test a wastegate put your hand on the vacuum port and then pull the rod out if you can't feel any suction the wastegate is bad

With of without the car on? With the car off the rod doesnt move, but I dont know if thats normal or not. I just got back from the highway like 10 minutes ago so Im gonna have to wait a couple hours before I could touch anything. But all hoses are ziptied down, checked multiple times. All hoses are connected properly.

Re: MBC or Actuator?

It is easier to take the waste gate off to test it. like Alex said. just put a finger over the vacume line and pull it out. If it makes suction then its all good. I did the same with my car. Turns out i had the boost controller on backwards

Good luck
