Okay i have a 14b/td05 turbo and i recently got a internal wastegate for it(turbo didn't have it when i got it) and i put it on and the flapper is slightly open still could it be because there is no vaccum line attached to it or should it still be closed??? or couldi cut the arm that gouse down to it and then weld it back together shorter???
here are the pics

 

anyone??

 

all depends.

is the wastegate you have now the same as the one that should have been on there?

they make adjustable internal wastegates, you might want to look into that.

but in my opinion, just get and external wastegate anyway, your going to end up wishing you had.

 

well i just got a manifold that can't accommodate external wastegates so it make sit kinda hard ot get one, could i get it and reweld it though??? and amke it slightly shorter

 

well i thought about it and if i put a nut underneath the bolt for mounting it it closed perfetly could that be it i will post another pic

 

yea im not following.

but you can do this, if this is what you were talking about.
