Default Wastegate dump tube question.

Ive looked all over for one. Even ebay doesnt carry the one I need. Its the 4 bolt style. Where can I find a wastegate dump tube for a tial 40mm wastegate?

Dumptubes are pretty much "one-off" things. You wont find a "universal one" that fits.

well then,

If its open, its loud. IMO,open is just less trouble then retouting the dumptube in the exhaust and it sounds sick *** ****

You want it to vent to the atmosphere. It will cause turbulence in the exhaust and cause a HP loss. If you run it open you want it slightly lower than the oil pan as not to heat up the engine bay or have the turbo compressor breath hot exhaust.
