      Why are you using waste gates. Get rid of waste gates and use 2 electronic bov to controll boost. Thats what drag racers are using now. I less problem to show its head.

    The real problem isn't the recirc, or the gate size, it's the way you have them plumbed. You've got them on the outside of the bend which is good, but the 90 degree angle for the feed means most of the exhaust on that large of an engine is passing right by. The gates need flow priority, even something like a 45 degree angle would probably fix this.

    Yall plz like this comment, what would help with the boost spiking issue comes from the waste gate not being inline with the flow of air if you look the waste gate is not inline with the headers pipe which causes the air to flow right past the waste gate, move them over an inch or two and I bet the would work significantly better this is my favorite build of urs so hope this helps 🤙🤙

    I would recommend if your super worried about using a pressure based boost solenoid to run boost control of your wastegates and even the BOV switch to something like the Turbosmart Gen V eWastegate that they offer.

  • @jackdaniel5716
    @jackdaniel5716 12 днів тому +5

    That wastegate location is not giving the wastegate priority, you need the outlet of the turbo pointed at the inlet of the wastegate not at the 90 degree angle you have it at. Just move it further down the outside of that bend.

  • @General_Madness
    @General_Madness 13 днів тому

    When you do the waste gates, you should def add a second pipe that goes parallel to the exhaust so it still sends all the boost to basically the same place, just not through the exhaust. Would be awesome!
