Man, I appreciate your video. I just went from a single wastegate to a dual wastegate and this definitely cleared up a lot of my questions. I was curious though can’t I get my boost reference from a intake port as well?
@jonathanmoore5929 you can get it from wherever you choose. Just needs to be a source of boost. (The location seems to be a debatable conversation, but it works both ways)
What is the thread size on the wastegate ports, or did you retap them to 1/8npt in order to use push lock? I can’t seem to find anything online that says what size they are.
@@cturboaddict thanks for the video. helps a ton. i have exact same WGs, i believe. mine are the v2 of the 44mm ones. so imma run my setup pretty much like yours. only question i have is, do you happen to remember if the TOP WG ports were 1/4npt and the LOWER WG ports were 1/8 npt. Thanks in advance
@@cturboaddict thanks a ton, i literally just fig. out why i was struggling with the 1/8 or 1/4 issue. i had mine mounted on the car already and could only see the top hole that was surely a 1/8, and on the bottom of the WG all i could see was a smaller hole. Turns out the smaller hole isnt for the npt fitting its for the water cooling fitting that came with the WG. The ports i need all had allen headed screws in them, blocking them off. i watched ya video again and seen u had one less block off then mine. so i took it off car and sure enough the plug or block off is where i have to put my fitting. im pretty sure theres 3 holes to allow me to be able to use one no matter what orientation the WG is in. Again thank you. awesome setup btw. smh sometimes we all miss the small stuff and feel like i do now. lol
You can run a single mac valve and T in both wastegates. But I would suggest looking into compressed air/co2 to control your dome pressures. Way more control!

What did you do for the blow off valve? No vacuum line to it? Doing mine like this and wondering if I should cap it or t it in somewhere
Blow off valve has a vacuum line from the intake to it.
life saver! thanks for the video, been searching for this with no luck
No worries! Thanks for watching!
Can you install the dome sensor at the Mac valve with a T I don't have enough room on the top on my gate thank you
I would advise you install it at the gate.
Thank you. I’m setting mine up exactly like this. Nice looking build btw
Thankyouuuu

If I recall. Wastegate is 1/8" npt and Mac valves were 1/4" npt.
I'd have to go look to confirm, but it's one of those two.

@@843Performance they both were 1/8 npt

What if youre not running compressed air/c02? Also can you run single Mac valve with 2 WG?
You can run a single mac valve and T in both wastegates. But I would suggest looking into compressed air/co2 to control your dome pressures. Way more control!
Having a hard time understanding the benefit. Are you able to use just one 3 port Mac valve for a dual waste gate setup? (Or are two recommended?)
One handles vent, the other pressure.
Thank you for that. ?? What if you have twin turbo. Do you tee both turbos together or just use one turbo ?
For the boost reference? I would think you'd t them together.
