New Cast Pedestal

[LBZrcks]

I just got one of the first new PPE Cast pedestals. I'll be putting it on this week. Here's a few pictures. Measures about 4" in height.

What's the difference between cast and fabbed up pedistals??

Do they make one set up for a wastegate?

They have a wastegated spacer.

Any word on pricing?

I'm not sure on the price but they will have them next week. Dan might know the price already if it's any different from the current price of their pedestals.

X2, does cast bring the price down a little, do they hold more heat....? Dont avoid the questions Mr. Parts!

I haven't been told what the real benefits are, but I was told that they were designed with Garrett using there flow software and machines. I'd also imagine they minimize heat transfer/loss, they're also stronger and there's no welds that could fail.

i have a ats t4 cast pedistal and that thing is stout.

IIRC the turbonetics cast pedistal is or was like $750 but that included a wastegate mount.

x2. As much as I dislike ATS in general, the t4 pedestal I picked up used for 200 bucks is a quality piece. Im sure the PPE one is very stout as well and looks to be made well. I personally like cast pedestals more, as I have seen one of the fabbed pedestals fail, and they retain heat better.
