Stock wastegate..open

[3.5familia87]

Hey wats up everyone.
2days ago I found out my stock wastegate will not close. Is there any way I could repair it? cause I am in a tight budget right now And can't afford it.
If so, can anyone give me tips or step by step instructions please. Thanks.

Also: I've seen a lot of talented members that's done self- custom and fabricaton on their engine parts which looks sick and badass..
- now trying to find a way to custom make and fabricate my turbo manifold (or best way to repair the crack) and bigger downpipe. anything really, that is a part of my MSP. That would be awesome if someone does. Thanks everyone.

compared to a really nice custom downpipe, a manifold is a reasonable task. downpipes for this car are a freaking chore - dont bother. if you want to repair your manifold, there are ways with welding and such but ive never done it and cant comment. as for your WGA, i think once its stuck open its toast. an ATP isnt too too expensive and will do the job for you at this point.

oh. I just heard people talking about the wastegate being able to repair as long As I have the diaphrame for it is that possible?
That's like replacing every little part in it right?
It would definently do if its possible.
So the wastegate you're talking bout bolts right up?
What's the cheapest price would I be able to find 1. Cause i need to replace it ASAP.

i couldnt tell you about the diaphragm. a new one from protegegarage is like 55 bucks or something, and i think it "almost" bolts right in. someone else will have to chime in on this one.
