bearing in tgv

an_juan · 10-15-2007, 07:16 PM

there's a little bearing in the tgv housing where the shaft goes through. How should I take it out? Thanks.

good luck. the only way to get it out would be by hammering it from the inside, which is impossible. if you make some sort of a hook-like tool to pull the bearing out, maybe it will work.

i just JB'd the crap out of the holes, and seem to have no problems (i run 19 PSI)

put back my catback today, and forgot to set the boost solenoid to a lower duty cycle. drove at 21 PSI for quite a bit with no issues

there are 2 JB's out there. "JB Qwik" and "JB Weld". both are basically the same, but the quick one sets within 4 minutes and cures in 4 hours while the standard one sets within an hour and cures overnight (12-16 hours)

in theory the "Qwik" one is weaker, but i say either one should be fine, as i used "Qwik" on the passenger side, as i ran out of the normal one.

good luck,
Ashot
