Bracket to hold IWG shut on Turbo?
 
Does anyone know of a good solution to bracket an the wastegate arm on an IHI turbo to hold the wastegate shut?

I'm looking at a bracket from area1320.com but wanted to know if there were any alternatives.

if you have a dremel and/or cutting wheel and a drill with bits for metal you could probably make one yourself, shouldnt be too hard. but other then that, youd just have to get one made at a machine shop somewhere. I wouldnt spend more then $30 for one, just make some measurements and draw up a diagram and take it somewhere.

I may just do the DIY (dremmel it yourself) route

he got his for much cheaper then you will find it. Someone did it themselves and then decided not to use it. a UR kit with wastegate is $550 or thereabouts. not sure what the slowboy is, but im sure its right around there.

Helix just came out with their setup and it's only 400 shipped from gruppe-s! Comes with a Tial 38mm or 44mm EWG.

I'd go with that setup, mine was just a bit more but it was also ceramic coated
