What do you suggest then ratter?

checking it before using it and bracing it if required, it's probably not critical in 99.5% of cases, but depending on what other mods are on the car may lead to whether the wastegate works well enough to control the boost correctly

cheers for the advice Rattler, will have a good look at it once all set up.

save the hassle and go external

You got to much money Trent

*Update*

Just a couple of pics of the Garrett universal actuator bracket on the GTX turbo. The turbo is clocked into the exact position it needs to be and this is how the bracket looks. I have a straight actuator arm on my wastegate, and not sure if im going to use this one and maybe give the bracket a slight massage to straighten it up a bit as it kind of bends forward toward the front of the compressor at the moment. Or I may end up swapping it for an actuator that already has a pre-bent arm on it. Not sure what way I will go just yet il do some measuring tomorrow and see if a straight arm will work or not.

Anyway some pics for you guys to see.

Garrett bracket part number: 773161-0002

The pictures are deceaving, it looks like there is a big bend needed in the rod, but its not as much as it looks in some pics. Im thinking a small massage on the bracket and small tweak in the rod and it will fit just fine. Not 100% sure what il do at this time, if the turbo company lets me swap it for the bent arm, il probably swap it, but if they dont, im sure I can make this work.
