not sure what street toys are here... do they have a website and can they ship overseas.

Just to clarify, I need the actuator on the turbo itself, the one with the built in sensor that sticks up (unlike the BEW actuator that sticks down).

The one I have is no longer holding vacuum. trying to avoid replacing the turbo.

I don't think those BW smart actuators are available new and much the way the Garrett ones were not until recently. For this reason, I am afraid to go with a reman due to the possibility the VNT position sensor within being faulty as has been the case on at least one occasion with us so far. It sure wouldn't hurt to contact Nick at Street Toys to see if anything has transpired lately. Later!

I may be looking for one also. Have been working on a turbo problem on my 05.5 for a long time! after around 2300 rpm and boost builds, it suddenly drops off, replace N75 and MAP sensor, same problem. Found a boost leak problem on clip of top inter-cooler tube and intake manifold, apparently they are not exactly the same and were swapped somehow so boost was leaking, fixed this but still have problem loosing boost. was thinking about cleaing turbo also as a last ditch effort
