ya its part of the casting so if i peel it back and put a wrench on the lock nut and hold the screw and turn the screw it should work?? lol sorry if im confusing..

also i checked my turbo out.. no shaft play and spins freely so its either the waste gate or the alda.. correct?
plus my mum would like me to get it inspected by a pro and the dealership in orlando will do it for 158$ sound reasonable?

like I guess you figured you loosen the nut a tad..then adjust the screw...but be gentile. If a shop will give you a thourogh check out including Compression and leakdown test thats a good deal....he will spell out whats wrong and what it needs. Not everyone has the skills to do that.
