OK guys I have a turbo, about to buy the Drewgo manifold and downpipe. Now my question is what size wastegate do you guys recommend, there are so many sizes. The turbo I have is a PT63. any info will be greatly appreciated.

I have a Tial 44mm wastegate and it's always worked perfectly for me. I used to have a gt35r and now I have the pt67. I still have the same wastegate though.

My fault, wont happen again. I'm not really trying to make any serious power. I just want to get rid of these smoking little twins. Bottom line I just want a car that runs good and I wont be afraid to drive it:icon_bigg

It all depends on how much boost you're trying to run V's Turbine AR but the 44mm is a good compromise and works well.

The Tial is faultless and I've run it from 5psi to 30psi.
