burnout8488 Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Going to be installing my turbo soon, I'd like to rent a wastegate adjustment tool. (Probably the IPD one?) I'll pay a deposit (you determine) plus shipping, ship it back to you, then you refund me the deposit minus $10 for your time. Need ASAP within two weeks max, thank you!

db130 Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 do you have a fuel pressure gauge or can you borrow one from one of the chain auto parts stores? if so, you can make one quite cheaply this is my Kent-Moore wastegate tester that I bought 2nd hand. all you need is the gauge, some rubber tubing, a vac tee, and a blood pressure bulb($6.25 w/ free shipping on ebay, see item # 230785022148) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
850T5M Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 I used a blood pressure cuff that I ordered off ebay...paid it 15$ shipped I believe. Basically you just need the gauge and the bulb and a vacuum T-fitting. The gauge is in mmHG but you can convert from PSI to mmHG. My ARD Tune + 16T says to be at 3.7PSI at the wastegate, so thats 191mmHG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnout8488 Posted May 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Didn't realize they were that cheap! Guess I'll go that route then and just buy one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellow95 Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 DO those things have a one way valve in them or do you just squeeze and hold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy_J Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 I would assume so but not sure. The video IPD has of how to use the pump shows them pumping away then letting go and it holds the pressure. I don't see how this could work without either a check valve or a closed system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shurgen Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 DO those things have a one way valve in them or do you just squeeze and hold? There is air release valve between the bulb and hose, put pressure in with bulb and close the valve, then slowly release the air until your desired number on the gauge.
