Any hints/tips?Turbo is about to poop itself and I have another aftermarket one here but no wastegate built in. Currently tuned around 312rwkw, 4" downpipe etc..Thinking about going in here, 50mm...Any issues with this spot?

Kosij Donating Members 2,045 Member For: 13y 9m 9d Gender: Male Posted 16/09/14 03:09 AM Share Posted 16/09/14 03:09 AM Have 2 7psi springs, I'll chase down a graph Found with the 3.5" exhaust gate pressure was about 1psi higher then spring pressure,But now with the 4" system it's a tad higher! I think the 45mm gate is a little small for my setup now, Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89180-external-wastegate-on-factory-manifold/#findComment-1499582 Share on other sites More sharing options...
