I have been reading up on wastegates and what sizes are good for the hp you want to make. I am sure I have probably asked quite a few people on here but I figured I would get a better feel for what size I would realistically need by asking all of you guys with real world experience.I personally would need a gate that would work well with boost ranging from 10 to 19 psi and producing 350 to 500 hp?Any help is greatly appreciated

hahahaha I hope you joking right? I mean it could work but you want something more along the lines of a 44mm or a 46mm but thats just me on what I would use

I thought they only made the standard gates and their hp series and I thought the only difference between the two were the spring rates?But I am a noob so I am probably wrong

no your right..... there is no such thing as a wastegate for racegas.... someone just talking out there ***....... all wastegates operate the same and race gas exhuast is the same as gas exhaust except the smell hehe....

So why is there an option to upgrade the valve then
PS> I could be mean about it, but I'm not!

actually your wrong. When you use race gas (leaded) the valve on the wastegates do have a tendency to start sticking. As for tial making a different valve, i thought they did but am not 100% sure.

Well you might be right but I went to tialsport.com and it didnt have anything listed as far as differences in how they make the wastegates .The hp and the standard are basically the same as far as construction.Someone correct me if I am wrong?

Actually, the bigger the turbo, the less the necessity for a big wastegate on the same setup. A small turbo on high boost has the greatest potential to spike, hence the necessity for a good wastegate. Of course wg selection should also be dependant upon exhaust volume too, so it's kind of a hard thing to determine. Im no honda expert, but i'd say a Tial 35 would work and a 38 would definatly be adequate for both Siblues and Accordking. Look at all the cars that have gotten away with 31mm deltagates all these years.
