Description of Efficient Performance Upgrade: Part# 1831383C92 GTP38 Turbo 22PSI Wastegate Actuator for 1999-2003 Ford F-250 F-350 Powerstroke 7.3L Engine 1831383C94
A wastegate actuator is a fairly simple piece of equipment – controls the boost output of your turbo, diverting excess exhaust gases away from the turbine wheel. it features a spring and a diaphragm. The spring holds the wastegate shut until the boost pressure reaches a set level, and then opens, allowing the gas to escape and reducing the boost pressure. This controls the speed of the turbine, preventing it from over-speeding, and regulating the speed of the compressor. Ultimately, this helps to protect the turbocharger from unnecessary wear and tear, by capping the maximum boost pressure of the turbo at a safe level. This wastegate actuator is a direct replacement for Ford Powerstroke 7.3L 99.5-03 GTP38 turbocharger, the rod of Actuator is adjustable. Ford F350 Powerstroke 1999 - 2003 year 275HP Power Stroke, Ford F250 Powerstroke 1999 - 2003 year 275HP Power Stroke. Customers can find the product you need accurately according to the OE number.

This wastegate actuator fits 99 00 01 02 03 years Ford cars. As with all components, things can go wrong with your wastegate actuator. Over time, the pressure and heat will start to take its toll, which can weaken the spring. This can lead to the wastegate opening earlier than it should, reducing the boost pressure and performance of your turbo. The diaphragm can also fail, meaning that the valve will no longer open. This can lead to the boost pressure rising to the point that it causes serious, catastrophic damage to your engine!.
