hey every one

i have been looking a while now and would like some opinions.

i am looking for an external wastegate to suit the setup im putting together on my r33 atm.

setup consists of:

standard rb25 with replaced head gasket and stud kit.

6 boost external gate manifold,

gt3082 with a .63 rear housing,

plazmaman plenum,

wolf v500 (afm removed),

750 cc injectors (may go e85 later on)

surge tank with 044,

exhaust, intake and fmic as always lol,

a turbosmartkompact plumback Bov.

i think they are all the mods related to the topic.

i am pretty keen on the new comp gate 40mm wastegate from turbosmart, would it be suitable with my setup or if not what should i look for

i am planning on having it run at 18 psi.

what are your thoughts?

Not the best choice of rear housing IMO, doesnt really justfiy/support the expense of aftermarket manifolds/intakes etc as the turbo is going to be choked to the heavens

As for gate sizing, read the FI Guide ;)

Tial MVR.

Cheap, reliable, well engieered, v-banded for easy installation.

Did I mention they are cheap?

Confuses me why people spend $500-600 on turbosmart gates, they are good, but wayyy too expensive! Especially when there's cheaper alternatives for half the price that are just as good!
