I found this on ebay and was curious. I didn't know that GT35/40R BB comes with a internal wastegate? Please give me what you think?

I just love these SSAutoCrap dumbfucks...

Don't bother.
I won't even go into my rant with their crap.

It's a T25 hot side - that explains the internal WG.
This makes too damn small for your 13B, unless you're going to run two of them?

"GT34R"?
Boy, talk about making up your own ****.
Due to the T25 hot side, it's not a "GT35 / 40R" - it's technically a "GT2540" or a "GT2840", but I somehow doubt the quality is just not the same with true Garrett quality and tolerances.

I've never seen a turbo from those guys without "XS Power" on the compressor housing. What's up with that? Is it still an XS power product?

XS Power, SS Autochrome, Stone Mountain Racing, etc. are related companies...or at least they all sell a lot of the same products.

You're getting XS power and XS Engineering confused, one's a shitty part of SSAC, the other is a reputable tuner.

Can't they get in trouble for using a compressor map from the garret website when it's not a garret product?
