rVito i think you are fundamentally misunderstanding the ‘swap’ here. EWG Turbo is larger than PWG, regardless of the wastegate actuator. The idea here is to move over the wastegate actuator from a PWG Turbo to an EWG, so no change in injectors or DME, just a bigger turbo.

I exchanged some PMs with thejeremyman9 and MaverickCruise about the swap on an N55 and both expressed doubts that it would work on the platform
