Wastegate?

[Chopstik]

Hi guys, I've looked in the forums but i couldnt find the exact topic. Sorry if it has been discussed.

My car is currently doing 320 kw with 2860 -5 turbos. Was just wondering, between hypergate 45mm and tial 60mm, which one would suits my car better?

Cheers.

What boost are you planning to run? 60mm is quite low boost, I'd say the 45mm will suit better.

Thanks for the reply, im planning to run about 18 - 21 psi?

Neither suits you car because they are External gates.

You turbos are Internally wastegated.

-5 turbos do not require any modifications/upgrades to the internal gates, they work fine as is.

Lol, see here I was thinking he just wanted to convert to external gate... How could your car be working if it didn't have wastegates!?

FOOOOL BOOOOOOSST!!!!

[Chopstik]

yes, i wanted to convert it to external wastegate

There is no need, and it would border on the impossible as you would realistically need two.

Try fit that with all the twin turbo plumbing.

And as it's not required, offers no performance gain... Begs the question of why?

[Chopstik]

Thanks nismoid, as im planning to change to t51r,but currently using 2860 -5 . One of my friend is selling the wastegate cheap and he needs get rid of it fast, thus the question. Was thinking i would probably benefit the wastegate first before the new turbo arrives.

Thanks again guys for your help. Really appreciates it.

You must not know, or never looked at the basic links given because what you are suggesting is not only a waste of money, but completely not even applicable.. If u want to 'upgrade' later on, do so, but your car will be poorly set up or a super tough 500-1000 skid bus

I would like to know where the op plans to fit said external gate on the standard manifolds, I vote just the rear manifold
