What wastegates are you all using with the big singles? And would a bov have any benefit in my setup? I'm curious and still learning obviously...TIA

I have a 50mm wastegate. And if your letting off harsh through runs or dyno, a bov would be a good investment for not killing your turbo.

Where did you place your wg?

6.0dirtworker · Sep 17, 2011

Right where the egr used to be. Dont mind the welds, they are all cleaned up. The lincoln at the shop was acting up and started to spatter, and we wanted it to run the next day.

What brand wg is that?

6.0dirtworker · Sep 17, 2011

Turbosmart

What did that set you back?

6.0dirtworker · Sep 17, 2011

I got it for 420. You can probably find it cheaper or maybe another brand.

I used a 50mm as well. It ties in at the exhaust housing to y pipe adapter and dumps in the exhaust housing right before the dp clamp.

What pressures did you all set them up to dump at?

6.0dirtworker · Sep 18, 2011

I haven't really messed with mine yet. But I added the additional springs it came with, a 7lb outer spring and a 10lb middle, but I think it was set to open around 28ish or so. But it's been a while so I can't remember.

Is this on the compound setup

6.0dirtworker · Sep 18, 2011

Yeah, the one I posted on page 2.

patrickke · Sep 18, 2011

I cant wait to get it up and running, sucks this chest surgery has me laying low for a while.. I have a 50mm external tied in there. I want to bump up the primary but I want to sell both turbos and go as big as I can for turbos on a 6.0l with big fuel and big oil. Im just not understanding the foot size. I know I shouldve went t4 and t6, but on the next setup, should I go for two t6's or a t4 t6 s500 and another big turbo in the mix? Im probably going to make a thread about this when the time comes, but if yall have some thoughts now, throw em out there lol. Here my setup, dont mind the rr fuel lines and such.

lol dont hate on t3 chargers. i put down 1097 with a 66/74/70 over and s483/ 96/1.32.
