get an is38 wastegate actuator, I never could get the is20 one to work correctly on the DTRI'm trying to set the voltage for the IS20 style wastegate actuator on a DTR6054 turbo, on the bench, and even with the rod jammed in as far as it will go into the actuator, and not even hooked up to the wastegate, the highest voltage I can get is around 3.0v. When the rod is attached to the WG, I can only read about 2.8v when forcing the WG closed, regardless of the length of the actuator rod.
I'm using a USB power supply and a cut USB cable to supply the 5v, following the method shown in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41mRzf5HZpQ&t=183s
Interwebs says it should be up to 3.5.
Is this going to be a problem, or will it clear up when actually installed on the car and try to do the adaptation?
Or is my WG actuator faulty?
TIA
I found bench setting the WG to be a waste of time. I think it has something to do with the USB power supply used, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I though I had it benched at 3.6v only to find out it was waaaay off after installed in the car. The only reliable way to do it is if its connected to the car.

What's normal sensitivity?no. replace it.
Thanks I'm nowhere nearroughly 0.1v per turn
Thank you will try more this week.the cooper gate dosent work like the mahle. fire it up and let it set idle, shouldnt a take but a few secs. gate will be fully shut. note voltage. turn motor off, adjust rod to target 3.6v the necessary turns to do so. ignore voltage when motor is off it wont register correctly. fire it up again and check voltage. lather rinse repeat. be careful the DP gets hot fast, dont burn your arm.
On this thread, is your post suggesting you were able to log voltage (and possibly adjust as well?) with the car shut off after starting and shutting off?
