Message Bought them used from a forum member. Noticed the flapper valves were loose - preload wasn't set properly. When I went to set them, I realized that one side was maxed out at 11psi with no more rod length to go (with washers to act as spacers between the wastegate and bracket, mind you) while the other side would adjust to 15+ psi preload, no spacer. The wastegates also didn't appear to match, so for peace of mind I worked out a deal with the seller of the turbos to buy some Forge's from CZP. Only now (after waiting 2 weeks on back-order) I'm discovering that the Forge's don't fit the same brackets and are far too short to reach the flapper valve.

I'm frustrated that, besides not being advised that they were on backorder when placing my order over phone, I am now discovering there are two different options offered when I look online - this info wasn't presented to me. I wonder if the longer rod version would work...but I guess now I'm stuck buying CZP's brackets and/or rod ends. Pain in the ass to say the least.
