In many cases, aftermarket dump pipe inlet flanges don't properly align with the outlet of the turbine housing, as they were designed to fit within the constraints of a 3-inch pipe. When an oversized wastegate flapper valve is installed, it can interfere with the dump pipe flange. A bit of die-grinding usually resolves this issue. Additionally, the actuator must be preloaded, otherwise, the flapper valve may rattle. The stock wastegate also tends to open too early, so upgrading to a wastegate actuator with a stiffer spring can improve boost response. -

Are you referring to the common front u-joint + rear CV setup I see sold everywhere? I have a front + rear CV driveshaft on order but if this thing is going to bind I'm just going to leave it as shelf art. -
They are real good. Big central grooves, sticky compound. I have no fears in the wet. Except for the first couple of miles where you wouldn't count on them to have any warmth in them yet. -
My favourite LOL is when I see a nice car with $5-10k worth of fancy pants rims, but, they are running on some cheapy spec tyres And as for running semi slicks on a daily that might get caught in the rain, yeap, been there, done that, won't do it ever again, aqua planning going 110kph on a straight bit of Hwy with the Mrs in the car makes you think hard about your life decisions and tyre choices -
