Default question for the sfwd guys

I didn't want to put this in forced induction for the "bandwagoners" to flood it. But I have been figuring out my turbo setup...and been curious on a few things.

What WG setup are you guys running for your mid 9, and low 10 second cars...I have been noticing alot of top mounts with duel 44mm wg's and what not...is all that needed to control 40-50 lbs of boost that I have seen some of the sfwd guys running.

Also, this might sound like a really newb question, but I was talking with a friend and he was saying that a HKS SSQ or a Tial BOV wouldn't hold the pressure of the psi that a sfwd car puts out...

I run a TiAl bov and dual 44mm gates. It doesn't take that much wastegate to run 40+psi, but it does to run 10psi on a setup like we run.

I never understood the benifit of running twin wastegates, im sure it helps.But we have a few local cars over 700 and 800 hp and there only running one wastegate, the boost controller has never made them spike or anything!

the twin gates are not about controlling spikes, its about being able to run low boost levels with a big charger

the reason for running a correct wg setup has nothing to do with overall power.
