Pull the actuator off; 2 or 3 10mm nuts holding it to the compressor housing and the circlip at the wastegate end. Then replace it with another nut or another actuator. Should be able to pick up an actuator for cheaps off somebody whos blown a T2 up and still got it laying around Smile

If your trying to increase your boost just get an MBC, job done, if your trying to decrease then just reduce your fuel. Thats avoiding the problem, but meh
