If I'm not mistaken, most wastegates will give you a rating for horsepower that can be supported (at least HKS and Greddy do). Determine your power needs and then shop. I use the Type-R Greddy wastegate and haven't had any problems yet.



------------------
93 Base
- 3mm Ianetti ceramic apex seals, solid corner seals
- Street ported
- Autometer boost guage / AF ratio
- Haltech E6K
- Greddy Profec A
- Greddy T78
- Pettit SS 3" resonated midpipe
- Thermal R&D 3" cat back (polished SS)
- O.Z. F1 cup corsa 18" wheels
- Schroth racing harness
- R1 spoiler (front and rear)
- Blitz FMIC
- HKS SSBOV
- Supra fuel pump
- 1600cc secondary injectors

a 45mm should do the job
