Hey guys does anyone know where i can buy an upgraded wastegate (i.e a better than stock one) actuator for my euro4 smart 451 turbo non brabus. Im looking to buy a pipercross filter , turbosmart boost control, some NGK iridium laser ILKR7B8 (colder plugs)and a re map but need help on the wastegate actuator. I could see figures of up to 133hp looking around 0.6-1.0 boost with this setup . any help and opinion is welcome.

Hi, I want to install an electric heater in a petrol car and probably would need more current at idle RPM. At idle, alternator can only provide around 40% of rated current (75A is rated at around 2500RPM). The questions are: 1. is alternator's pulley size different in diesel and petrol cars? From some pictures I found, diesel one seems to be bit smaller (= more RPM). 2. If different, are the alternators otherwise more or less compatible in terms of mounting to the engine? 3. Can I spin the alternator slightly faster than rated? In electrical theory there should be no problem.
