HKS Upgraded ACT Kit (R)PS13 for 1989-1994 Nissan 180SX RPS13
The HKS Upgraded ACT Kit (R)PS13 replaces the stock wastegate actuator on Nissan 180SX RPS13 models equipped with SR20DET engines. Designed for 1989-1994 right-hand drive chassis it enables accurate boost regulation up to 1.5 kg/cm² (22 psi) with quicker response. Tuners rely on this direct-fit upgrade for consistent power delivery in high-boost setups.
Key Features
- Reinforced Diaphragm: Handles elevated boost pressures without stretching or leaking for sustained performance during extended runs
- Stainless Steel Bracket: Provides corrosion resistance and structural rigidity to endure track abuse and daily driving
- Aluminum Die-Cast Lever: Reduces weight while maintaining strength for smoother operation and reduced turbo lag
- Adjustable Preload: Allows fine-tuning of actuation point via threaded rod for custom boost curves
- Direct Bolt-On Design: Matches OEM mounting points on Garrett T28 turbocharger for hassle-free swap
Product Notes
- Pair with boost controller for full tuning potential
- Inspect turbo wastegate for wear before installation
- Securely packaged in original HKS box measuring 8 x 6 x 4 inches
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Remove stock actuator from turbo wastegate fork and actuator rod
- Includes M6 hardware kit compatible with factory turbo housing

Forced Induction
Forced induction systems encompass every method of pushing air into an engine at greater than atmospheric pressure, including turbochargers driven by exhaust energy, superchargers driven mechanically by the crankshaft, and prochargers using centrifugal designs belt-driven at higher ratios than traditional roots-type blowers, with each approach delivering a significant increase in air mass per cylinder fill that allows proportionally more fuel to be burned and more power to be produced without increasing engine displacement. Adding 10 PSI of boost pressure to a naturally aspirated engine can increase power output by 50 to 70 percent depending on the engine's breathing efficiency and the quality of the supporting hardware, making forced induction the most power-dense modification available relative to cost and complexity. This collection covers complete forced induction systems, turbocharger and supercharger hardware, intercoolers, blow-off valves, wastegates, and supporting component...
