SC42 Wastegate Actuator
 
Anyone know where I can get a new actuator for my SC42 and what fits? Need it by Thursday mapping session :(

Scoobyclinic I would have thought?

Have you given them a call?
Surely they wouldn't turn down a sale of anything?

Fit an aftermarket forge one, not cheap mind :eek: but from memory the sc series are based on blouch turbos which use TD05 tech so you could possibly use an actuator from a td05

A friend of mine called them on my behalf. I've just spoken to him and apparently they just said send the turbo back. So a bit of crossed info from him. I'll give them a ring in a bit. What a pain.

I was thinking of getting an after market one but after seeing the price of that forged one I think I'd just prefer a replacement.

Cheers for that, I'll see what they say also :)

Did you ever get this sorted? I need a replacement actuator for my SC 42 twin scroll, and can't seem to figure out which aftermarket one fits. Is this something where I can get a universal adjustable unit (e.g. Kinugawa) and re-use my original actuator rod and bracket?

I got an HKS uprated one, complete, for my jdm oem twinscroll , from Funky power. SC should be able to tell you if it fits.

Unfortunately they just referred me to Blouch, still waiting for their reply. Do you know if I can remove and re-use my actuator rod on the replacement actuator? Was yours a twin scroll SC42 as well?

No, it was an oem vf 53

Ring Turbo Dynamics, they fully rebuilt my SC42 and also fitted their own uprated 2 bar actuator at the same time as another upgrade. Well worth doing and they are one of the best companies I have ever dealt with. Fair, informative, helpful and won't rip you off. Full thumbs up from me! :thumb:
