Message: [QUOTE="6speedsd, post: 979206, member: 1242"] I was getting bad fluctuating with the solenoid that came with this turbo. I put my original one on it and that stopped. But the lag returned just as it was with my original turbo. Part of me thinks it's just my solenoid, considering the other sensors seem to be functioning correctly, and that solenoid is the only other part that is the same with the new turbo installed. Like I said the other day...at random times while accelerating, it's like flipping a switch and it'll clear right up and spool perfect until you come back down to idle. Then it gets laggy again. 70mph I'm seeing 5psi... When it clears up, same mph I'm seeing 10-13. Truck obviously runs 100% better when it clears up. Unison ring is new, vanes had no visual wear in them at all, nor did the actuating arm. Seems like all the internals are in perfect working order. When I had it apart, rotating the ring by hand was easy and smooth with no binding or catches at all. Sure I could just buy a new solenoid and put it on. But then I'm just throwing parts at it, and that gets expensive quick. And that's why I bought AE....so I can actually figure out problems and not just throw parts at it like most mechanics around here. [/QUOTE]
