Internal wastegate t3/t4 woes

That angle does look terrible, you should be able to grind the weld off then pop the lever arm off and weld it back on, just be careful because on some flapper assemblies you can knock the tube that the flapper runs through into the housing so the flapper and hole won't line up so don't go hitting it too hard. Your bracket looks a little flimsy as well, it seems to move quite a lot when you pop the rod off?

Why not just weld a new arm directly on top of the old one, only angled how you need it? The old pivot will be on the far side of the actuator arm, so there shouldn't be any interference, and if you ever want to go back to stock it will be as simple as grinding a few welds.

 

A little ghetto, but why risk damaging something that's difficult to replace?

Im also running the same on my zxt but with a bored stock turbine. Up to around 14 psi it does not do it but 15-16 it will run over 2 psi around peak torque then fall back to its boost controller setting. Im using a homemade ball and spring type.

Just tune for the extra boost and enjoy the surge of torque. Thats what i did. : )
