NOOB wastegate question.

[j0nbunklah0m]

How do i know which size wastegate i need? New to turbos and such, thanks in advance:goodjob:

[mocha latte cupcake]

how much PSI and power are you pushing?

[j0nbunklah0m]

set up is not on yet, but im looking to do about 8psi on a 50trim. at around 200-250hp

[Formally...]

38mm will be fine.

[Drummerboy]

38mm is the standard, go with that unless you plan on making crazy power. i think 44mm is the next step up.

[jcs]

i would second the 38mm

Just as important is quality. try not to ebay special a wastegate, you will more than likely just end up with problems. ie; leaking, improper boost control, fitment, or poor diaphragm material.

Im using a turbonetics evolution wastegate. Its a pain to get on and off, but when its on, it fits SNUG. No leaks at all.

Agreed. Tial wastegates are proven and reasonable priced for the 38mm one you will need.
