I've bought an VNT-turbo from 220cdi W211, since my original turbo is singing on its last phrase.
I have questions about the steering of VNT.
My question is stupid, but I want to give it a try:
-What happens if I weld the "WG-rod", or pressure steering rod, in locked position, or lock the vacuum intake-line? Will it be driveable? it will propably give very high turbo pressure and the vnt-system want be able to be controlled, but still, will it work?!

larsalan I guess I need to look at this stupid ass drip shit. What you have to like mess with those elements on the pump? What a fucking hassle. then use some wire to hold the throttle open or some shit?

You think it will be a problem? or just to controll the backpressure?

It could well cause a problem.
Too much exhaust back-pressure can completely bog-down the engine, so it will make less power than a N/A engine and make LOTS of smoke!
The trick is to get the boost high and the back-pressure as low as possible,--Not easy!....

The turbo is much bigger than the stock turbo and with bigger exhaust it might reduce the back pressure a bit, or?
I will give it a try, both with open and closed actuator, and then try to adjust it both up and down, to see if I make it work...
