external wastegate???
i am thinking about puttine a w/g on my truck but dont want to end up with a huge project. does anyone know were to get a good one, what it costs, what size i would need and how do i fab it up. and would it be worth doing? i think im getting to the point were i need to protect my turbo?
|
i have a tial 38mm gate on mine i think there a little over 200 bucks. to adjust it im using a cheap air compressor regulator from home depot. works good keeping my little hx35 alive
|
so would i benefit from putting one on my truck and how would i mount it?
|
does anyone have pictures of one installed
|
I'd like to see how its mounted too. Are you guys putting the external gate on the manifold or on the exhaust housing?

That plate is a great idea. That set up can't be cheap.

whats your drive pressure now ? how much hp do you wont to make . does you turbo have a wastgate now ? I have made 650 hp with no ex wastgate & outhers have made more than that . need more info
|
Can someone explain to me what the point of that is if you already have a wastegate cause i know hx 35s have wastgates already on them.
|
i have a aftermarket 60mm non wastegated ceramic ball bearing turbo i see 40 psi of boost and am around 460hp. do i have to weld all that together and then bolt it to the exhaust and turbo?
|
does anyone have pictures of a wastegate installed and what kind of price for everything i need?
|
There's more pics and contact info on the link I posted under the last pic. Here's another from that page:

|
i was told that basically you dont need it unless your runining like ridiculous amounts of boost like with twins

Total cost in Dec, 2004 was $388.00 for fittings, regulator, hoses and W.G. 'Wasted' exhaust was ducted into down pipe... keeping excessive heat away from turbo. Bottom pic is Wilkerson R08-02-F000 regulator setup. Worked great...allowing me to take a non wastegated 425hp turbo up to 500 hp. without over spooling.
