Ok I have a 20g with a t3 flange and Im about to get a t3 manifold but its set up for 44mm wastegate...Is that too big of a wastegate?

thanks

How much boost do you plan on running?

Yeah, that is huge for a 20g. Why not just get a mitsu flanged 20g and bolt it right up?

80mm wastegate ftw?

Yeah, the 44mm might be a bit overkill

Ok, so what do you guys recommend 38mm, 40mm I got the 20g from my cuzin and he had it flanged for t3 and he sold it to me for 75 bucks so I couldnt refuse that offer.

I'd just use a Tial 38mm. It'd work perfect for you. But if you already have the 44mm, and it fits fine, then I don't see why couldn't just run it as long as the spring in it isn't for a higher pressure then you plan on running.

44mm is a little big
I use 38mm's on my pte 50 and pte 61

44mm is a little big
What is defined as a little big?

I don't recall ever seeing a discussion on this board about external wastegate sizing so this could turn into an excellent discussion.

Or it could turn into something like the multiple intercooler threads we have.... :scared:
