Now guys I have 2 queries about ex gate on exhaust manifold..

First one is, I've been seeing and told that ezine gate is highly recommended to be welded onto rear housing of turbo and or right near the t3 flange..!!!

Second is obviously a 6boost manifold as the gate is already on the mani...

Does or anyone know if they both sound the same and if one is correct or wrong idea...

Thanks...

I dont like the look of it, and if you want to change turbos or housings later it sucks.

But I do like the boost curve from a housing/gate combo. You can nearly always put a ruler on it and it will be pretty close!

I had a td05 with gate welded on rear and never had any troubles,that said I'm now running a td06 on a modded stock mani with gate and no dramas there either..choice is yours and yes I've heard good and bad stories aswell but that didn't stop me doing it Just make sure it's a good job and don't skimp.If you have the cash a 6boost mani will yield more power top end tho.

Yehhh that's the hole reason for me to do this on the rear housing...

As I can't affords a 6boost mani cause I have other shit to buy first...

This option still allows me to run stock mani and all the same pipe work....

Thanks for the imput...

I went for on the exhaust housing - yes if I wanted to change housing more of a pain but if a stud breaks or the manifold has to come off that can be a pain too so both have advantages and disadvantages.

interms of sound, no difference as others have said.

these should help give you an idea of how to mount off the housing correctly.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
