wastegate actuator

Do I understand this right, the ECM controls a solonoid in the pressure line to the actuator, kinda like a very fancy boost controller? If so, what is the normal pressure for the actuator to be full open, like if you were running the pressure line directly from the turbo to the actuator?

Yea, the ECM controls the solenoid, but it uses pulse width control instead of just on/off. This prevents boost spike and the like.

 

As for being open with full line pressure, it should open around 4-5 psi..depending on factors like air temp, etc.
