im installing a turbo, all thats left is for me to get a waste gate. here is the question... are all wastegates where they bolt onto the header/manifold a universale size, or are there different sizes.. if so how do you figure out the size?? by measuring hole centers???


thanks

 

You'll have to use the wastegate that is flanged for your manifold. If your manifold doesn't already have a flange, that gives you more options (tial, hks, etc.). Soo, which manifold are ya using? btw, the tial 35/38 use the same flange.

 

i really dont know... it looks like someone built it in there basement.... (ebay buy)... at any rate heres a pic

if you cant see the pic, its cuz i dont know how to use computers.. if you can them thats sweet..

any rate the hole centers are 2 3/4 in. apart and the opening is 1 1/4in.

 

is the flange shaped like an sharp oval? if it is it im 99.99999 percent sure you can fit a tial 35mm on there. If its square then a tial 40mm


btw you have to host pictures, like imagestation.com...you can just copy the link from your comp.

 

 

tial and turbosmart fit

 

is there a specific size i need or just tial or turbosmart in general will fit? whats the 35mm mean or 38mm?? probably how big the opening for the exhaust to go through is huh? im only gonna run like 6.5 or 7 psi... what kind would you guys recommend?

 

You are correct on the tial 35/38 being the size. I'm not familiar w/ turbosmart Wg's. Just pick up a tial/turbosmart w/ the WG spring in what boost you want to run and go with it. Pick a lower spring if you plan on using a boost controller.

 

whats a decent price to pay for the tial?

 

can be had anywhere from $205 - $215 from vendors on HT - check venders marketplace. If you need feed/drain lines, can be had for $185 from fast-turbo.com (if stan's still offering the deal) - check his deal in above mentioned forum.
