So.. following my foray into 25 psi wastegate actuators masquerading as 12psi ones. I find myself in need of a decent 10psi actuator. It needs to have the dog leg for the arm and be as long as possible.
Does anyone have any recommendations?
For which turbo?

Excellent thank you Alex - that's the right shape, I just one that is a bit longer now.. the design of the TBO requires the arm to be about 3cm longer (need to measure exactly still).

Just realised I'm being silly- my existing wastegate is fine- I just need the longer eyelet thing that attaches to the arm! Doh! The current one about 8.5cm so I need something a tiny bit longer orrr I chop this in two and add a bit of metal..

Just need to measure the size of the hole now.. and hope that my one is 1/4 unf (whatever the heck that is)

Ah... so these things happen to others too :-[
At least you have realised befóre buying the other one instead of having the ´aha´-erlebnis when it is still under way ::)
