I've no idea.

I'm going to be using the T2 actuator for packaging reasons this year...

Staffordshire or Northamptonshire

Only thing i can think of is that you would most likely end up with a better sealing pressure on your wastegate. A larger diameter actuator with larger diaphram will also have a stronger spring, so before it sees boost the pressure applied to the wastegate would be higher. Can't make my mind up if this would give you less creep on wastegate as boost rises.

Sold the turbo and seeing what the C20XE can do!

Near Lincoln

I'm using a T2 billet one bought new for about £50. they're loads smaller so should help installation as space is always tight in that area.
