do i need a new wastegate?

[SIXBANGR]

I have a TA5857 cea with a stock gate , non ajustable,and a valve. I get boost flutter at 24+. I would guess it is time to get a HD wastegate, sound correct?

what i mean by flutter, is at 24lb, the boost gauge does not stay steady. The boost is bouncing around from 22-25 or so.

Did this just start? Was it working before? Does the actuator hold vacuum.

may have it fixed. The puck on the thdp was sticking. Will go drive it after a while.

All fixed, it was the puck sticking that caused it. And, it may not be a THDP like i was told it was when i bought it.
