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 This post has been edited by elvasoshexai: Nov 28, 2007 - 12:59 PM -------------------- |
