ok.. so the wastegate actuator on my ct20b is fubared.. i get boost creep like crazi...

i was going to get an external wastegate to replace it and weld the internal one shut.

i just hv a question about size.

i was planning on getting a tial 38mm w/ either .5(7.252psi) or .6(8.702psi) bar... i hv an mbc and plan to run probably 10psi neway tho...

however, the shop my car is at, a customer has a 48mm wastegate but wants a 38mm and he said that customer is asking if i want the 48mm turbosmart wastegate in exchange for a tial 38mm...

i'm assuming 38mm is a good size for a 5sfte...

would i b better off w/ the tial 38mm or the turbosmart 48mm?
the 48mm seems kinda big... i'd possibly get a lot of lag?
not sure what other pros/cons there would be between the 2?

any help? thnx

Why 38mm? A 35mm is cheaper and capable of supporting more than enough power. My Supra had a Tial 40mm and I got 530WHP out of it. You get it too big, or too small and you get creep, spikes or both. I have a 1st gen Tial 35mm in my Celica and it works like a charm.
