The car is stock basicly no tune etc can it be replaced with an aftermarket one or will another stock 5 psi one have to go in Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/83482-replacing-stock-wastegate/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was stuck open you would have some air noise but no boost. Won't be an actuator I would think.
