2007 Turbo Cobalt SS: Tial wastegate install & 38mm dumptube fab
Customer came in with an old Turbonetics Deltagate and a terrible dumptube. The original dumptube was positioned directly at the head/block mating surface, which in time would cause serious damage ! The car was also having boost issues prior swapping out the gate.
Without a good dumptube the turbo was inhaling expelled exhaust gases and the car would not make power !
Some pics....
