Has anyone used the turbo manifold for the 7mgte from suprasport? I was just wondering if its worth the performance. My exhaust gasket is burnt out so im lookign to replace it and while its off put on a new mani. And another question? Im running the HKS t04e .60 trim and i was wondering about the added wastegate option. dosent that turbo have a internal waste gate? would buying a new turbo manifold with a 40mm wastegate flange and a waste gate with a internal one on the turbo do anything weird lol?

Wait, what? You said you're running that turbo but you don't know if it has an internal gate or not? It's pretty obvious if you just look at the turbo.

Whats wrong with the manifold you have now?

You need to be a little more clear on what you're saying.

You could disable and remove the internal gate I believe. Or you could block off the external gate port on the manifold. You don't want to run both.

Thats what i was looking for thank you. I'll have to look into removing the internal wastegate. Thanks

I just purchased a used boss turbo and the previous owner welded the internal wg closed and removed the actuator. Is there a benefit to using an external wg on this turbo? He modded a factory exhaust manifold to use an external wg on it.

Sorry, dont mean to thread jack.

i could see a turbo being a lot less likely crack with out a waste gate, but if yours has an internal wastegate I would keep the stock manifold, doesn't it support a decent power? I may be wrong but i thought i read this somewhere
