This is a graph I generated after adjusting the turbo actuator. I made it longer by one whole turn, since they said online that it was very sensitive, so I didn't want to go too far. The actuator is a pain in the butt to adjust BTW. Hopefully I will get faster at it.
I also tested the actuator and it does start moving around 2-4" of vacuum. It hits the stop at 18" like it is supposed to.
The graph looks about the same as the last one, so it doesn't look like this attempt helped.
Should I adjust it 2-3 full turns this time?
Looks like I am peaking at around 19 PSI, which shouldn't be too much, but the duty cycle is still in the 90s. I found some recommendations saying the duty cycle should be around 80%? Someone on this thread suggested 65%, not sure which is better?
Here is a log from my 1999.5 Jetta. It peaks at 18 PSI or so.
