PSI should have the flange welded on today and ceramic coated tomorrow, so I think I should have a picture of it all installed next week.
Also I thought you need a smaller wg for more boost. I will be running 20lbs, so isn't the 38mm better at regulating the boost?
I figured the dump pipe would be loud, but I am running PBM straight pipe exhaust anyways and the cops here in Beaverton don't get too worked up about how loud cars are! |
Wastegate sizing is funny. If you're running big boost you can get away with a smaller wastegate, as you're putting most energy through the turbo itself. If you're running smaller boost you would want a larger gate, as it helps vent more pressure and has more control.
In theory, a larger gate typically works better than a smaller gate on a normal street car that isn't running huge boost all the time...but in the same regard, that does not me the smaller gate won't work equally either.
