TONY C Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 if it truly has no wastegate that it is not a stock Z unit. are you sure that the vac pod to open and shut the wastegate is just missing. if so that you can get 1 from flea bay or maybe someone here has 1. I might have another. If you need an external wg than TIAL is the best imo and probably most others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yenghua Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 if i put something like this TiAL wastegate onwhat will i have to do to install it? or is there one that may be designed for a stock turbo? sorry, i came from natural aspirated engines. turbos are a little new for me, i'm just familiar with the basics.

240hoke Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 That is the wastegate actuator, it opens a flap inside the turbine housing which is referred to a a wastegate. Pick one up off ebay and youll be good to go. Fitting a external gate is a bit of work and is really only nessecary if you change turbos and need the extra flow.
