battle cattle

Well after an exhaustive search I need some advice I haven't come across. I am currently running a oversized turbo I wish I could be more specific but I can't since the person I bought the car from had no idea what he put on. Currently I am running a 40mm HKS knockoff. Now its boost creeping on my **** so I know I need to upgrade to a bigger or better wastegate. Now after searching the tial website I saw something I haven't noticed which is a "rotary" wastegate. Now is this going to be better or just a more expensive wastegate? I guess I am really looking for advice from people making power. Also i don't really want to have to upgrade after this if I want to make more power. Any suggestions?

thanks

I had not seen that. I am running the TiAL 46 mm on my car and it does NOT creep. TiAL in my opinion makes the best stuff out there.

I am guessing your referring to this one

it says for the turbo rotary applications

That would be the one!

I'm running a teeny greddy wastegate, and I'm having no problems maintaining as little as 7psi.

Well, that depends on your turbo.

kinda a side note... does your turbo glow after a spirited run? Which might be part of my wastegate issue getting WAY to hot.

Yeah, it glows a little. Depends on your definition of "spirited"/

flirting with "redline" for 10mins in full boost/boost creep. My turbo goes full red and starts going down to the vclamp to the downpipe. Maybe I have another issue?

You better be careful with it creeping like that.. What other mods are done to your car? How much are you boosting??

you have to check the sping inside may be put a smaller one and glowing can be from timing or fuel

its only creeping to 12psi. Yes my car has most of the other mods to support more boost. Minus a new IC and a stand alone. 85% of the time I am pedaling it to stay low in boost.

I would love to do that but... i need to have one by friday and installed by saturday or earlier...

Ok so I received my 46mm Tial Today and am going to install it but it seems that I might be missing a inlet gasket between the manifold and the wastegate. Is that something I don't need since I haven't found anything on Tial's website reguarding a gasket and before I go installing it I want to see if anyone knows the answer.

Tial just released a 60mm fyi. What turbine a/r do you have, and what exhaust manifold?

battle cattle

yea just found out my manifold wont work... So I need one of those too... blah this is turning into something I dont need right now.

battle cattle

1revvin7 ya busy a work??? I need to get this stuff taken care of soon anyway I can give ya a call to work it out?

battle cattle

after some research.... I might have to make an adapter from the HKS to the Tial. But am I feel if I am missing a gasket/shim the 2 pics below are the HKS version with the gasket and the Tial without. Am I missing the gasket? Or dont you need one?

Looks like your missing a gasket on your Tial unit. I see the valve see, discharge flange and two gaskets for the discharge, but not one for the inlet...
