Paul R Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 Hi, I'm just wondering if it's possible to fit an aftermarket waste gate to a J-spec supra to get around the need for a restrictor ring? How iddicult is it to fit a wastegate and where is it? Cheers, Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 IIRC the wastegate for standard tubs is built into the housing of the turbos and is not replaceable. Ben.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben.. So it's worth while doing if you are getting aftermarket turbos fitted then? Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 If you're getting after market turbos fitted then they may have an aperture on the new exhaust manifold to accomodate adjustable wastegate/s. Hybrids do not have external wastegates, just enlarged internal wastegate valves. Dude can fill you in, as he is gonna be putting one on his car, soon as he gets all the bits I think. Ben..
