ouch, yeah i guess wastegate is gonna have to be the way you go, henry should be able to get them
I told you just in the essence of time go to ATP turbo in hayward man its not even 1 hr away from you
I think that you will want to vent both up pipes with the wastegate, not just one. unless im misunderstanding your plan, or i am mistaken and your turbo is not a divided scroll.
Anthony it def isnt a matter of not wanting your business , just hasnt been enough hours in the day to do that tune we were going to do , when we talked i figured i would have the time that week but what i had lined up didnt go as planned , my average hours the last 2 weeks ( months really) have been 8 am - 3:00 am with a 3 hour dinner break to see the family and 2 days till 6 am , please dont take it anything against you i didnt get the tune done I really wanted to. If you do end up not finding a gate I have 5 on the shelf .
what turbo? if it is a divided scroll that will be less than ideal. unloading drive pressure from one bank of cylinders and not the other probably isn't the best idea.
Stock turbo. I don't see why not. It's not like I'm running 0 pressure. I'm still leaving 40psi in the up pipes.
I would think you would want to relive the presure in ballance not just 1 side but want do i know
With the way the dmax pedestal is setup especially with a stock charger, I doubt you would see more than a few psi difference.
if you feel the two inlet ports on the hot side of the stock turbo, they converge pretty much right away.
This is what im doing with my new engine, mounting a wastegate on the EGR flange of the up-pipe, and then gating it into the hot-pipe for the twins....that way I can run a big primary and still keep the VVT, without having the restricted hot side of the VVT.

fwiw gating only one side works fine, that is how we do all our 6.4 wastegates on basic setups.
Did you end up getting a gate?
