few turbo questions - Page 2

Looks pretty similar to a Garrett turbo, thats a twin scroll t6 exhaust flange. I would dump that exhaust housing considering the built in wastegate. Take some mm measurements of the turbine and call reed turbo works or some other company and see about a different ar housing.

Whats wrong with the built in waste gate? Hell I was going to use it. If the waste gate is a bad idea. Could I not just not use it and leave it there? And Shawn boy. ummmmmm no. Ive been thinking about a LS engine. If I did I would want a 4.8. Oh yea. I opened a flickr acount to post the pictures because my photo bucket acount was acting retarded. I tired to post them to 3 other sites. this was the only one that would do it. Yall are special. hahaha.

You won't be able to hold boost levels consistently with that WG, an external WG will suit your needs better.

OK. I can understand that. Will it be fine if I disconnect the hose going to it? Id like to take it off altogether if Im not going to use it, but Im a cheap ass. If its not going to hurt anything. I will leave it there.
