Been stuck on this part of my build for awhile…time to make a decision I guess! I’m needing to upgrade the wastegate, or so I’m being told, looking for options. I took the piping to a fab shop and this is what he said…”what needs to happen for proper wastegate operation is all the piping (yellow stripe) needs to be cut off and bigger piping installed for your bigger wastegate. I can do it all for $400!”…I don’t know if that’s true but it makes sense to me.
I’ll be running a 76mm bb On3 turbo on a forged motor as hard as I can to hit 650hp to the wheels. Currently I have the 38mm On3 wastegate and a TurboSmart 45mm wastegate (brand new).
I can….
1. Pay the $400 and get the fab work done?
2. Sell the v band TurboSmart wastegate & hopefully find a 2 bolt flanged wastegate that’ll work?
….hoping for more options.
Do you guys agree that the piping needs to be replaced with bigger piping?
