ChrisLeeBoost Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Recently bought wepr kit and a turbosmart wastegate now I'm led to believe that the wastegate has two springs in it, is it possible to remove one Spring so I can just run the 7 psi spring and get the mani and few bits on the car until I'm going to get it mapped? Also where does the second port on the wastegate have to be ran to with vacuum hose? First to a boost pressure source and second to where? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5e colin Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 do you know the pressure of he springs ?? yes to your question use the weakest 1 and try see how much psi it runs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
adzy Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Some wastegates have smaller helper types springs inside the main spring, so remove it and see what boost it runs at.Bottom port goes to compressor housing, top port just vents to atmosphere if your just running spring pressure.Top port is used when your using a boost controller Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisLeeBoost Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 Bought it second hand and on the box off it says 14psi so I'm presuming there's a 7 psi inner and 7psi outer ring so would I be better off running the smaller spring or bigger? Thanks lads Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5e colin Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 no there never the same size springs probly 10 and 4 or 9/5 or something like that anyways Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisLeeBoost Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 There was a big one and a small one the big one was 105mm in length and the small one was 60mm in length not sure which one to go with as the chart is confusing on the turbosmart site Quote Link to post Share on other sites
