wastegate manifolds

does anybody know of any good turbo kits that come with a reliable external wastegate rather than an internal one.....if not...how are internal ones adjusted to higher boost settings

there are no kit's that come with a externally gated turbo/manifold.

You can get a SF kit and get it as a upgrade.....not sure how much more.


Boost on a internally gated turbo is controlled by a wastgate actuator and a rod that is connected to a flapper in the downpipe. You turn the rod to adjust the flapper............therefore adjusting your boost level.
