Just purchased second hand turbo smart actuator apparently been on car for 5000ks before going external gate.

how many springs are meant to be inside?

It's probably a 12psi actuator with one itty bitty spring in it.

 

You can make roughly double the boost that the spring is rated for.

 

Here's a 12psi one disassembled.

you might have to use a vice if there's enough spring pressure between the caps.

just ask the manufacturer which spring(s) you should be using based on your setup.

it's almost impossible to tell since they don't mark their springs with manufacturer stuff, as far as I've ever seen. Just put in smaller to bigger springs until you're happy if you want to stuff about with it yourself, but otherwise just ask the manufacturer of the items.
