LolJust played around with a standard bf actuator and found it begins to crack at about 5-6 lb and is fully open by 10lb so that's 4lb added pres.to fully open.The presicion actuator begins to crack at 11-12lb and is fully open at 36lb, that's 24lb added pres. To fully open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kroozin Menace Donating Members 1,990 Member For: 13y 1d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 04/04/14 02:01 PM Share Posted 04/04/14 02:01 PM Modded Garrett 12lb fits too Bit of mucking around but actually allot easier than I thought. Now with the front cover hosed straight to the actuator I have 13lb at 3500 rather than 22lb. With no preload only enough preload to not spin the gate and adding 15lb, this was how much it was opening before nNow with a bit over half a hole preload (10psi) the garret open this far with 15lb added 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
