Deltagates are known to spike.

Tial wastegates are better but they aren't perfect.

it seems the problems with deltagates spiking are primarily because of the manifolds they are on. usually people run them with manifolds where the gate feeds off of one runner primarily (i.e. DRAG manifold).

i have a DRAG manifold and a deltagate on my setup, and its making PLENTY of power for the low psi 185 whp at 6-7 psi...

during roadcourse trackday sessions, i've seen 9-10 psi though...

it isnt the gates fault, the manifold is just letting it feed off of one runner, and thats the problem.

i plan on modifying the manfild so that it taps off of the #1 and #4 runners...extending a pipe accross the manifold and having another flange there, closer to the merge. should make for a cheap strong manifold, and should help/stop the creep.
