Cheers Pukka, thats pretty well what i thought, just the caffiene was wearing thin and needed someone to point me in the right direction.
God knows what springs in there, it should be 7psi iirc. where can i buy alternative springs? thanks again ![]()

oh and the leaking was just at idle it was chuffing past the valve itself rather than a leak because id got it plumbed to a vacuum pipe so it was opening a little, closed fine when throttle opened a bit.
me being a dumbass... ![]() yep steel machined ring in between manifold flange and wastegate, no gasket. is that right?

i got supplied 2 gaskets with my wastegate,one for the manifold flange and one for the screamer flange. if you have really well machined flanges im sure high temp sillicon would be fine. Its upto you. I have seen both the gaskets and springs available from ebay usa and there still very cheap with postage

im not using a gasket at all between the wastegate and manifold flange, just the machined steel ring and it doesnt seem to blow. the gaskets are a bit shite, think hylomar is a good shout from wastegate to screamer

it doesn't burn off, it just turns black and gooy, and it comes off with thinners, but seals it good, i used for 2 years,
