obs wg big single

KBMKVIII · Jun 11, 2012

wondering who anyone runs a large wastegate on a big single obs.
what all had to be done to the firewall?
pics?
going to buy the wastegate uppipes from jake.
76mm billett wheel precision comp housing for GT4202R with a .98 exh housing.
running 350 200s.
how big should i go for wg?
bigger then 46mm?
i know tuners can tune for not having a wg but i think .98 is going to be a handful with these sticks.

i know its a really small housing for the sticks and that i may be forced to change it but i really want to try it out. mabye.
trying to make up my mind on that.

like junkie said to me, that poor, poor turbo lol

time to get busy putting these on

Bump it to a 1.01 housing and run it gate free.

KBMKVIII · Jun 13, 2012

i have been told that the precision housings seem/feel looser then they are too.

Powerstroked162 · Jun 13, 2012

Maybe so but its still a 42 frame and most have the best luck and drivability with the 1.01 housing.

I'd say run it before you worry about a gate. Housing swaps on single turbo setups can make the biggest difference in over-all performance before a gate will, IMO

What he said^ I have that same Turbo from presicion and I think I have either a 1.15 or 1.28 and im going back to a 1.01 I have similar size injectors as well

i have a 1.15 on mine im going to have to put a smaller housing on it to help it light off when pulling

pulling as in towing or sled pulling?

i will be occasionally towing as well. not often.
32' enclosed car hauler.

does anyone tow with the 1.01?
mabye gating the .98 would be a good idea with that in mind?
as stated before i know its mostly in the tuning, just wondering.

baderic03 · Jun 13, 2012

sled pulling i know mine is laggy on the street to get it to light i think you will wanna keep the lil housisng or goto the 1.01 for towing and etc

KBMKVIII · Jun 13, 2012

just called precision about the 1.01 and they only offer the .98, 1.12, 1.28.
what sponsors sell the 1.01?

baderic03 · Jun 13, 2012

you can get it from industrial or anyone else

SDstroker · Jun 13, 2012

I got a 1.15 from Jake. I am sure he can get you want you need.

baderic03 · Jun 13, 2012

i got a 1.15 if you wanna trade

Put a 40mm gate on each manifold...plenty of room down there

baderic03 · Jun 13, 2012

were do you see plenty of room on a obs for gates?
?

JDub · Jun 13, 2012

WOP put dual manifold gates on Powerstroked162's OBS..it's possible.

PowerstrokeJunkie · Jun 13, 2012

Go ahead and try it with the housing on it. I just got done putting a wastegate on an obs with a s400 on it and irate mount that doesn't have a provision for one when it was originally made...it wasn't too hard to add one, and I don't even know how to weld

The 1.12 was a total phucking dog it was not streetable at all. You want to stick with the housing you have now. The 1.01/1.15 are garrett brand housings the one you have (you obviously know, but for clarification) is a precision housing.
