    Stock Wastegate Spring, What does it look like??

    Anyone got a picture of a stock wastegate spring? Just wanting to check. Or wire size and how many turns?

        i do have one,but need to dig the dvds i brought with me cause i dont have the photo with me
        the interesting thing was that i bought a new one and put it next to the one that i was using and the used one was more pressed than the original unused one.
        as soon as i find it i will post it

                  What is the spring rate (and free length) supposed to be for this spring?

                  Is there information available that can be used to conduct tests?

                    Thanks 4 W Drifter :
                    Right, the one I fitted to Sammo's car has one turn less than that so it must be a stock ur spring, I've got 3 of them I had a funny feeling I sent the spare S2 spring to someone, andygplym maybe..

                      Knightrider, that looks like a 1.5 bar spring.
