Hello,
Here is the deal: I bought my car and have yet to drive it (needed some work). It came with an adjustable wastegate but I am hesitant to put it on. I dont want to run too much boost on it's maiden voyage.
Here is the question: I want/will use the stock wastegate but there is oil in the diaphragm. What if anything can I use to clean it out? Carb Cleaner? Brake Cleaner???
If I am screwed and can't clean it, I will use the adjustable one.
Here is another question that has been asked a zillion times. On an adjustable, the longer the rod, the less boost? and visa versa? If I have to I will line up the two and maybe make the adj. a bit shorter.
Thanks guys (and gals if any)
Bill
