31 lifts about 8, 34 about 14.

It depends solely on your boost control and expected turbine housing pressures. There is NO other answer.

Stu @ M Developments

So i'm basically fucked then lol, its a t35 .55 stg3 hybrid ??????????????

Running greys bd14's etc etc its meant to be peaking just over 30psi and holding 28psi apparently. Boost control is just the amal valve ??????

I would personally run a -34 in that configuration as it will have massive TI pressures.

Its got a -34 on it already but its a big shinny purple thing and tbh looks like a bellend. I was just wondering if there were certain makes of the -34 that are better than others. The forge ones look like a nice bit of kit but i'd prefer function over fasion

Mine certainly is. iirc the threaded part of the actuator is 10 cm long. there are 3 different lengths that stu offered me. If he can post up the 3 lengths i will tell you which one i used. btw im talking about the threaded part of the acututor, NOT the bit with the hole in it that goes over the wastegate arm

Impossible to say as it depends on the rod end pal, best to measure the shaft itself, thats all that will be concrete. Sorry.

you need to be arsed mate otherwise how will you get the correct length. Measue the length of the rod will deffo confirm though. It will take you 5 mins tops to do it
