As the title suggests I am looking for 0.3 bar actuators. I have spoken to Graham from Universal Turbos on the recommendation from YellowShed, but they have told me they are not made anymore. Graham is looking into it, just wondering if there are any other options available??

Cheers

i would consider the stronger ones IMHO

see if you can get a drive in one that has them fitted and without

Hi Gadge, what my plan is, is to get my car to what the clutch etc will "safely" take, then over this winter upgrade my turbos, clutch, gearbox, flywheel, actuators and then off for a remap. YellowShed was not keen on putting any other size on without remap etc.

Give Simon at the factory a ring if he doesn't have any I bet he knows a man who does

i think you will need a remap if you wanted max the clutch

i have over 400 lb/ft and this could not have been achievable without a remap

Are you saying I don't need a remap to go for larger actuators?? One thing I have noticed is the travel on the throttle to get full boost is quite long, is this normal??

Paul,

Don't put bigger actuators on with your map as it's set for the standard actuators. You could just wind up the actuators five or six turns each and leave that until you get the other work done over the winter.

Yes, it's normal to get full boost only at full pedal travel, they're mapped that way.
