Please note that if the waste gate linkage is more than 2mm out of spec ISTA will not read it. Adjust linkage all the way out and then incrementally adjust it inward using the adjustment nuts and keep checking ISTA as you adjust.

This is a common problem if you're not familiar with the limitations of ISTA.
Do you mean if more than ~2mm that ISTA won't report an issue but at ~1.5mm it will say there is a calibration issue hence why you suggest the incremental adjustment till you get it within spec.

Exactly. Anything more than ~2.0mm and ISTA will give you a random mechanical or electrical error for the waste gate. Once you get it within range ISTA with give you an actual adjustment in mm.
