Default Single Waste Gate or Dual Gates? Top Mounts

looking for a top mount that doesnt cause boost creep, i know the dual gates gets rid of the boost creep problem, but was wondering which manifold u guys use or perfer that only uses a single gate on it. I know the placement of the waste gate has alot to do with it too. Im looking into the top mount companies such as , Spoolin Performance, Neukin, Full Race, and Peak Boost, etc,etc. if u guys can give your info on your top mounts with a single gate and if u have any creep problems, which company u went with.

I would only go for two if you are using a divided T3 or T4 or have the twin scroll Evo turbo.

Bump, I want to know more info on this. if using the twin scroll design manifold, do you have to have 2 wastegate or can you use 1 big one like 48mm and bigger. I already have the Turbosmart WG 48mm and I would like to use that instead of buying 2 wastegate.

For a twin scroll aka. divided manifold you need to use 2 unless you have a 2-1 transition to something like a 50mm gate.

I also run an AFI divided T4 w/ twin Tial 44's.

if the exh(housing) was tooo small it would choke out the turbo up top.. most likely resulting in the boost falling off or power falling off early....

What turbo are you planning on running? That right there will answer if you need a dual wastegate set-up or not.

Peak-Boost gets my vote
