I upgraded my turbo due to the wastegate actuater being bad.  $75 plus shipping turbo worked great except the wastegate actuater not working...

I have some factory piping for the inlet of the turbo also, and herb you know its Rick in La plata.  I flung a timing belt so I did alittle upgrades at the sametime...

Let me know who wants it....

Okay Rick, you talked me into it. I'm working on a timing belt skipped engine also. Think it caught a intake valve, haven't pulled the head yet. How bad the damage on yours(you said you fly low)

I thought it would be bad I was doing about 40mph and the serpentine belt flew off, but went into the timing belt.  So the engine stopped and I pulled over popped the hood and seen the belts broken.  So I pull the head and it bent one exhaust valve, and broke to lifters, not bad, so I did the egr delete and cleaned the intake and head up, and bolted up a new turbo with intercooler and piping.  Its runs way better but I want more...

i would say that the actuator no longer moves the wastegate when boost pressure is applied..
VW it aint just a car, its a way of life..... Boost, Soot, Repeat
