Default Questions for Turbo Folks

Okay so in the mix up of things I forgot one important part of the build, wastegate(s). Now I have seen some of you guys running one large gate, while other run two smaller ones. Whats the difference between to two? Is it harder to set up a boost controller with two gates? And if I'm running a divided housing, would it help boost creep/controll to run say two 38mm gates rather then one 46 or 48?

And just for some info, Topmount manifold, Borg Warner S366( slightly bigger then GT4088R), K24 Block, K20A head

What Joe said. Also sometimes one BIG HUGE GATE like the 60mm are too big for people to find space for depending on manifolds. Me and Joe have the Full Race Pro Am Top Mounts with divided collector and twin 44mm Tial and it works GREAT!

how do you set-up both of your 44mm? what spring do you have in each one? what about if you don't have a divided manifold but you have a divided housing?

Any pics of the set-up?

I know how to speak proper English Pennsyltucky BUT "Joe and I" just sounds gay. lol

You should capitalize the first letter of the first word in a sentence, "it's" needed an apostrophe since it is a conjunction of "it" and "is" and add an apostrophe to "don't". Gosh, if you are going to correct me at least be correct yourself.

**ring**ring** English class over
