    VNT screw tool

    Hi anyone in Melb made the VNT tool to fit the screw for boost adjustment??
    Also downloaded z30 item. Does not say which way to turn screw, in or out
    to decrease boost

    "it says If you get the safety error, go back through the above process and turn the screw a further
    quarter of a turn until it no longer occurs."

    "9. Using a pair of needle nose pliers grab the top of the screw and turn it clockwise until it
    is half a turn."


    all of these steps are to fix the limp mode and errors codes so i imagin clockwise- anti clockwise+ boost
    but im not 100% so best wait till someone else confirms or corrects me

    I'll give it a go when it clears up {raining in Melb, go figure}. Think that will fix all my problems hopefully. getting there slowly.

    Turn the screw clockwise to reduce boost and spoolup. This makes the actuator arm stop before it reaches full travel and reduces the amount of opening the turbos variable vanes can achieve.
