had the car re-tuned last friday and tuner said that I need to get an actuator to hold the boost. looking thru the links on the fordxr6turbo site but the supplier is in melbourne.. can anyone help out with a contact in sydney. cheers sam

What's wrong with Australia Post?

Get it sent up and get your tuner to whack it in.

thanks Adam, there is nothing wrong with ozy post but I was hoping to pick it up tomorrow.. And have the car retuned before the weekend.. if I dont get any responss ill give the melbourne dealer a call tomorrow arvo... cheers

Express post buddy.

You'd have it Thursday.

no worries Adam. ill give them a call tomorrow if I cant get one in sydney... cheers

sorry Adam would you happen to no if it would be an easy job to do.. to change the actuator or would it be best to ge the tuner to do it...

Hi SAMSXR6T.

Youre looking at $160 - $180 for the actuator. The big cost is the labour to remove and re-install the turbo which needs to be done to install the thing. This is around the $350 mark. Contact C & V Performance at Taren Point in Sydney where I had mine done.

Regards,

Max

so who sells them and what do you ask for?

C & V will probably have them in stock too. Big job to do on your own though buddy.

Hi xrboss8 there was a post under topic (turbo actuator theory) Rob updated with the following. Rob bought his from Advanced Turbo Performance in Melbourne (03 9569 4764). Cost was around the $220 mark with an actuator arm to suit the XR6T. and now Max Power has updated the topic with a contact in sydney.. not to sure what amount I need to pay.. my current actuator will not let my tuner push the car past 285rwks.. I would like to reach the 300rwks.. the thing that is stoping the tuner is the actuator..
