Neveragain55 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 So I saw all the Garrett T3 turbo wastegate actuators on eBay and I’ve been all over the various turbo rebuild web sites and I haven’t seen anything that resembles or comes close to the stock wastegate actuator that came off of my original turbo set up. I’ve combed over the posts in here and haven’t seen anything on where one would go to source one. Do any of you know where I could source an actuator that will bolt right onto the turbo or are there any other aftermarket ones that will work with the original set up? I've attached pictures of mine for reference. Thanks in advance gang…….. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randy 77zt Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 I have a good used 1 laying around-the oem unit opens at about 6 psi.I got a 10 psi unit from http://atpturbo.com/ and built my own bracket out of some angle iron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaito Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I know you said you already got everything but I just used the obx bracket and a cheapo threaded rod wastegate both from ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
