what???

[OutToWinPAHC]

240 Gen is for general, non technical, discussion about S-Chassis vehicles, your question is about a wastegate, and you did not post anything in detail about your setup. Since your info said KA the thread was moved to the KA-T section.

If you want technical help please post in the appropriate sections. Also please post your setup in detail so others can help better.

Tial, JGS...

[chaosli]

tial, jgs, hks, turbonetic

i vote for HKS tho

[EODguy036]

synapse engineering makes a really good one.

[hannibal]

To me, Tial 38 and 44 are the 'standard'. Turbonetics apparently made some crappy WG's but I think they've since introduced a new design. HKS is usually overpriced IMO.

I'm curious about the JGS400. Any experience with one?

[Daniel@Z1]

I have always used tial in the past for external wastegates with no problems and i have used forged wastegates for any turbo with a internal wastegates

[eazye2000]

If you want name brand, go with Tial.

I would state my personal preference, but it's usually useless information anyways.

Tial 38mm

[GTR PrYdE]

Precision just came out with a 46mm gate that's cheaper than a tial 44, vband too of course.

I bought a used tial 38mm FWIW, Tial IS THE standard for gates...

[DevilMB3017]

Tial is definitely the 'standard' for waste gates.

I have a JGS, whatever comes with their KA-T turbo starter kit, IIRC it's the JGS400. I haven't had any problems with it, and I like it.

[WDRacing]

Not that it needs repeating but I will always use Tial.

[CouPe84]

what about turbosmart WG????

[kentuckyslider]

I ran a tial 38mm but I had to purchase an extra spring to set my base boost at 18psi(at the mani) so I will be going with the new precision 46mm kit(mounts to 44mm tial vband flange) for my KA-T build this winter.

Either of these comes with all the springs you need for any boost setting.
