Do you know which spring is in it already?...there's 2 types, parallel and a tapered spring. Try turbo shops or i can put up a Kinugawa link tonight which has everything.

cheers, i'm new to turbos this one has a vacuum actuator controlling the wastegate, do you have to replace the whole thing or can you get at the spring inside the actuator? sorry if this has been covered before

If you want to do it "properly" then just get whole new actuator.
Can I ask what type of td05 your running? And boost levels you want?
As the models running what's called a 'flat back' collar begin to ,not be very happy ,when running over 15psi all the time.
I know the td05h from the v5(?) wrx have the super back collar and the ones I've run/am running are good for heaps more pressure. Run 20psi with no issues. Can go more but at pump and autos limit.
This is just from my experience and I have been wrong before
