Internal wastegates are always a compromise, (except with the new BW turbos). They never flow well as the exhaust gas cant turn 90 degrees out of the wastegate port when its doing supersonic speed through the nozzle. Making the port larger will only mask the problem, I have also tried grinding the port to allow better flow and it made no difference in that case.

Plenty of gt3076s with internal gate make decent power and as for internal for stock turbos lol stao doest have a problem making well over 300 with internal

never said it cannot be done, but u clearly have never been down this path yet. some ppl like to learn the hard way :)

I was done that path with my old rb25 with a gt3071 on 270rwkw internal Gate and also a gt3540 internal gate on my rb30det making 346rwkw

Like I said I'm not goin to cry if I only get 290rwkw the mafia made that on 17psi with the sump pipe I bought of him which was custom made separating the internal gate and exhaust and made 315rwkw with meth injection with no mods done to his turbo

and i dont have a ex gate setup on the car atm im just buying a external gate gt3076 swapping the rear housings as i bought a dump pipe to suit

worse case ill just weld the gate closed and blow a hole on the rear housing for a ex wastegate :)

So gtscott do u think I should just buy the Garrett wastegate?

If you have the option get yourself the garrett big can item :thumbsup:

Apparently they help spool on a little earlier, but I honestly didnt see a problem with Mick_o's one (his is the small can they normally come with)

    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
    • That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together 
    • I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
