cheap adjustable wastegate mod
ive just finished messing in the shed i got a wastegate today off the scrapyard. it was off an audi its an external one i was looking at ways to make
it adjustable so i cant fit it to the saab 2.3 ive got. and it was easyer then i thought.
all you have to do is drill the top and a washer pops out and its already got a allen bolt to adjust it
thought i would post this as its a cheap upgrade for a wastegate for max boost
lol iam gonna blow the crap out of this engine

autobits clakes lane willenhall westmidlands. ill have to find the number out. i go there every weekend just to look around i had a dumpvalve and s**t
bleed valve for £5 they deal with scrap steel mostly so i think thats why the car parts are cheap but they have about 100 cars and crush about 250 a
week.and they do get lpg kits now and again

if you see somthing there you have to be quick to buy it or they crush. i had the back end off a 4x4 went back 2 days later and they had flated it.
but there another
4x4 on there thats complete if you need somthing let me no and ill keep an eye out for it. and i could let you no the price.
