....that has nothing to do with his spring...


is it an aftermarket wastegate?

the TiAL arent hard to do from what i understand.

sure you dont have an exhaust leak somewhere? even though itd have to be a hefty exhaust leak.

im runnin a 14b there might be an exhaust leak but im not exactly sure where,its a stock internal wastegate...i also heard that you could weld the wastegate shut and mount an external wastegate...also how would i check for an exhaust leak???please forgive all the dumb questions im new to the turbo scene and need a little advice...

also one more thing,i just got a ihi rb5h turbo from a probe,would this turbo bolt up to my set-up???

thanx for the advice everyone
