i have no idea!! lol

there's nothing written on it or a sticker, so was just going to buy a new one.

all i can tell you there's a 'evolution' chip the L6, it's running greens and a T34.48 all from my own observations, also have a rolling road print out for 340bhpish from a while ago.

Pete, that sounds pretty spot-on that power for that setup and boost, if you are going to but a new Actuator go -34, try Woodford Garage online Pete, good proce or Burton Power..
