iecku.tavea racing Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 Hey Has anyone experience with electronic wastegate acutators? Can this currently be controlled by a Link ECU? I think this is very interesting for traction limited high boosted cars. Cheers Heiko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowgti Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 I have been doing some research on the same thing, I am curious how this turns out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevieturbo Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 Using boost control as a reactive traction control, is probably the slowest method of power reductions and would also be the slowest to restore power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dp_tech Posted March 16, 2019 Report Share Posted March 16, 2019 I think about this feature too, almost all actuators have an inline feedback position, may be possible in future updates add one for Thunder ecu (with two throttle body driver hardware).

iecku.tavea racing Posted March 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 I was more thinking about a very low boost pressure in 1st and 2nd, to keep wheel torque low. It is also a more precise way to control boost in my opinion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StijnFSP Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 The one u showing on the picture is a actuator with vacuum and a position sensor not a electronic actuator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iecku.tavea racing Posted March 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 @StijnFSP Pictures just has been for demonstration. I would like to use the standard Golf GTI actuator (06K145614D). Changed all pictures to that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted March 19, 2019 Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 Is it a stepper motor with no feedback or a DC servo with position feedback? I cant see how many pins in the connector, maybe 5? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iecku.tavea racing Posted March 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 @Adamw I try to get some data for you! Perhaps the video already tells you enough. I talked to my VW/Audi guys...it is no problem to use these actuators on RS3 with upgraded turbo to ~2,5bar boost.(Tested!) Ttpcar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
