hks external wastegate
ok well i just got an external wastegate on my car and i was wondering how do you adjust them.its an hks standard 40mm wastegate and its got a nipple on top and one off the side and my question was if you run vacuum line to them from a boost controller or if its the type that you have to put a spring in it and if so what are the nipples for?
thanks,
frankie
The HKS Standard Wastegate is designed for applications producing upwards of 500HP. A machined 40mm stainless steel valve is utilized to regulate boost pressure. HKS Standard Wastegates are available in five different base boost levels ranging from 0.4kg/cm2 (5.7PSI) - 1.4kg/cm2 (20PSI).

i had this same problem when trying to use a manual controler.
leave to top nipple vented to air
the side nipple feeds to vacume and to your boost controler.

This is especially true for EBC's.
Are you running a full turbo upgrade?
Or are you trying to slap this on a stock turbo set-up?

i bought it from some guy and its a custom manifold with a t4 flange on it.but i made the mistake by buying a turbo with a t3 flange and had to get an adapter for it.

IIRC the correct way is top nipple to boost controller, side nipple to vac then boost controller
