Rhys249 Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 hi guys got a few questions for you about a tial wastegate so, i bought a tial wastegate the other day, turned up today and the top vacume hose connector is missing searched round a few places yesterday and couldnt find any, then i read somewhere that if i'm not running an EBC then i wont need the top one and should just block it of, is this rite ???if not where can i get a replacement connector ???and i've read there needs to be a collar in between the wastegate and mani, i fitted the waste gate to my WEPR mani yesterday and the only was it would fit is without the collar, woukd this be ok to use ordoes it need a collar ?Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Yeah if you dont have a boost controller you just run your vacuum hose from the compresser housing on the turbo to the bottom port of the wastegate and leave the top port venting to the atmosphere.heres a link to tial air fittings tho if you want them mateCLICKnot sure about the collar tho i have a v band tial wastegate and on my mani were the wastegate sits there is a groove notched out for the collar to sit into so i needed it to fit mine Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bean Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 by collar bit do you mean the valve seat that sits in the bottom of the wastegate where the flange is? without that boost will just pass straight through the wastegate and out the screamer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
the_sly_EP Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 No you don't need a collar, they are only for the v-band types.You simply put a bolt through the four holes (2 on either flange) of the wastgate to sandwich two gaskets (1 for either flange) to the flanges on the mani and on the decat.

Rhys249 Posted February 9, 2011 Author Share Posted February 9, 2011 only just realised there was a pic lol, yea that bit.ity seems to stop the wastegate lining up with the mani, i can see wat i was doin wront tho, i had the smaller bit going in to the mani instead on sealing the valve Quote Link to post Share on other sites
