hey guys would a single 46mm tial waste gate be good enough to hold 12-15psi on the street and 18 on the track?

 

or should i a lil bigger or smaller?

 

Around how much power are you going to make?

 

around 400hp

 

Plenty big.

 

thanks man

 

Seams like overkill. What turbo will you be running?

 

I'm running the Turbonetics Deltagate MarkII with a T04E 60-1 and it's SUPPOSED to run 10 lbs (I'm guessing it's an 8-9 lb spring or something) and it's creeping up to 15 lbs on the highway in 3rd and above at higher RPM.

 

running a 60-1 turbonetics turbo and want to run like 12-15psi on the street and 18 on the track..think i should go a lil bit smaller?

 

sorry that was for REXPWR

 

think i should go smaller

 

I have the TIAL 46. If you got the cash, go for it.

Probably is overkill, then again with a really great WG, you can certainly set your boost controller more aggressive in terms of response...

 

It's plenty big and could be considered overkill. But is overkill in that area really something to worry about?? I don't see how it could be. I just think it's a good move. If you want to upgrade turbos later or run more boost then you already have a good wastegate. Just my .02

get the biggest you can afford.

 

I'm putting one 46mm in my cym so you have plenty... If you really want a big wastegate, get the 60mm HKS GT wastegate.

 

thats a lil big for me so i think i will stay wit the 46mm

 

It's dependent on turbo exhaust manifold design, but for most cases it'll work fine.

thanks man. i hope to have some pics up soon of the manifold i am getting custom made.

 

Who's doing the manifold for you??
