wastegate question

the turbo i have has an interal wastegate that isnt adjustable and its set at 14 psi, i also need to get an external wastegate cuz my mani has a flange for it so i was wondering if i got an external wastegate with a 6 psi spring will the boost be 6 psi or 14? thanx alot.

You cant have 2 wastegates, your internal WG needs to be removed, if you plan to use a external WG.

I was gonna say that **** aint fitting any of OUR manifolds. I'd sell it and get a t3, becuase even if you DID get it custom fitted, chances are it would have to be clocked like no tomorrow, and it woulden't fit in our limited space =*( and 14 psi... lmfao

There are block off flanges for externally gated manifolds if you are running an internally gated turbo.
