Message: [QUOTE="TyCorr, post: 94486, member: 1451"] I do NOT think that WG is big enough!!! By the time you get to dumping boost off that hp charger the 38mm wont be enough. A 46mm would be best and leave much more room for tuning. The bigger gates are beefier to boot. I would venture to guess that most people running compounds that want to tow are going to be looking for lower boost numbers when towing. You dont want 100psi hitting your manifold when you're pulling a trailer. That would be hard on drivetrain parts!! Lets say you want 65lbs MAX for towing. That'd be about 20lbs at the atmosphere. Then you've got air charged to 34psi going into the 38r. So you are going to run that up that up to about the same boost figure and literally BLOW the rest of that boost out the tailpipe in one shape or form. Thats why Im having trouble wrapping my head around plumbing all the gates into the turbo piping, when we are already dumping quite a bit of our forced air off as excess pressure. Maybe Im not seeing the point of having the gate opening constantly. Back to the topic, I think you'll be sorry with a small, entry level WG. Id not go any smaller than the 44. A 46mm Tial would be the standard, imo. [/QUOTE]
