I know my fair share about turbo's how they work, why and how they go together etc...

I have also conquered the very large grey line of confusion that most have bewtween wastegate and CBV/BOV/DV etc... and they're different functions.

What my question is - i plan to purchase an electronic boost controller for my 93 940 turbo (saloon/sedan) and i think i have a td04-13h unit attached with built in wastegate and i was wondering what pressure can this turbo unit provide and can safely waste back into the exhaust with the size of the gate?

oh and i do plan to purchase a 2 nicer turbo's for this car and get a custom mainfold header and all that jazz ... halfway there too. found all the people that can do it, just need to find some turbo's ;)

rica performance has a kit for that. they have a table set up that you can scan to find your turbo and what psi you can raise it to. of course, they want you to buy their cbv rebuild kit for your turbo, but at least you will get a general idea. good luck. keep us posted.

i am right in thinking that if i remove the circlip holding the actuator rod and shorten it, it will raise the pressure slightly?
