Y bridge install during turbo

[davig]

I was wondering how much easier, if any. to do a y bridge at the time of doing turbo swap if

Definitely a bit easier. If it's in regard to your LB7 you won't see massive gains over the stock bridge.

I need to update my sig. I now have a 08 lmm I've just been reading about how the y bridge blows apart after upgrading turbo

Then yes, at the time of turbo installation would make your life easier for sure but not lightyears easier.

Do you know anything about these y bridge straps. Do you think I would be ok with just that?

 

[Dozerboy]

Depends on how much power you're gonna make and what you want. I'm making about 40PSI and strap mine. If I had it all over to do again I would have done the Y bridge at the same time.

I am going to put a fleece cheetah on am not quite sure how much psi they are putting out.

PSI is a parameter of your tuning more than anything. Realistically straps work well but the only sure fire solution is replacement.

Just do the y bridge and be done with it. Little bit of a performance gain and peace of mind not having that damn thing leak imo
