Can anyone give me some guidance to removing the wastegate actuator arm from the turbo? I can't see it, reach it, etc. I need to install a new adjustable one from FWD performance and get it unbolted from mounts and that's all. Do I need to get to it from underneath or remove more stuff??? Any thoughts at what length to set arm at to get started?? I need to be at 15psi when done Thanks!!!!!

Id recommend you remove your airbox, it'll be easier to see what ya have to do, its a pain in the ass, but its doable.. take your time.. 2 torx bolts on the actuator and a tiny little c clip on the arm, thats the hard part.. if and when ya loose the c clip that holds the arm onto the swingvalve flapper, you can find em at home depot ;) about 35 cents and the same thing as the orignal sence I found mine after I got the new one on.. dead on.. I used a sharp pick that has a 45 degree angle at the end to pull it... reinstalling it is also fun.. be patient and invest in a magnetic grabber tool good luck and patience will go a long way..
