Forge Evo 9 Wastegate Acutator!!!! Awsome!!!!!!!!!
honestly i was alittle sceptical about the product, i have seen several differant tuners and most of them claim the evo 9 does taper alot more than the 8's. just installing it let my car run 15psi without any taper at full boost in second gear. i am going turn up the boost to 24psi on 91 to see how it compares to the setup i had before. then try 100 octane at 27 pounds to see how it holds up. but so far the wastegate acutator even at 15psi the car felt alot stronger than spiking at 24psi then tapering down to 17psi. i am going to let my driver see how he can do with lower boost, see how he likes the new setup. personally i think he just need 20psi on 91 octane.

Here an update well just turned up the boost (still on 91) the car spiked at 24psi and tapered around 21psi - 22psi for gauge monitoring i use a DEFI BF gauge w/playback. the car feels insane i am going to try new maps i got from jester see if things change but the FORGE Wastegate Acutator is one of the best investment right next to a flash and tune.

Thats not even possible, I think you may be so excited about the new part that it felt that way
Ill be interested to hear how it holds with race gas

saiyanzzrage: DEFINATLY GET ONE IT WORHT EVERY PENNY, BETTER THAN THAT STUPID GROUND KIT EVERYONE GETS SUCKER INTO BUYING ( I AM A VICTIM MYSELF)
kimletrim: WELL IN BARS IT PEAK AT 1.5 BARS AND THEN TAPERED DOWN TO AROUND 1.2 - 1.3 BARS (1 BAR I THINK IT AROUND 14PSI)
Boltz.: aaaAAAAA YES IT IS RUNNING 15PSI OFF WASTEGATE BECAUSE WITH THE BOOST TURN TO ZERO RUNNING OFF WASTGATE ONLY 15PSI, THE SPRING IN MY WASTEGATE IS 27PSI NOT THE STANDARD 19PSI - 24PSI
