How To Open A Turbonetics Evolution Wastegate??
As dumb as it sounds, yea I unscrewed the 6 allen key screws and I cant get the damn thing apart. I dont wanna break it in anyway or have the thing shoot off cause of the spring. I want to put the 7psi spring in there but I just cant get the thing apart. Anyone tell me if I can just pry it open and it would be alright just by tightening it up again or what? And about the shimmers or whatever they are called, it says to put 2-4 in but does that mean 2-4 on the top and bottom or just the top??? Thanks for the help

Give it alittle bang with the hard on of a screwdriver. The rubber oring sticks really good on those wastegates. Same thing happened to me. But hold the top down while you give it a tap or else the top will fly away....I learned that the hard way. If your talking about the shims for the wastegate that will give you more PSI then they go on top for sure. I had mine shimmed as well. I was running the stock spring with 2 shims. About 8.5-9 psi

gotcha, cause right now the 5psi spring is in there and im hitting around 7psi so i just wanna put the 7 in there and leave it at that. thanks for the info though, watch when i get my car back ill probably be making a thread that i got hit in the face with the top of the wastegate lol. na but thats all it is, put a few shims in there with the new spring and close it back up?? thanks again
