We'll look into that for you, great idea! Basically, When we refer to the 'Tuning Window', we're talking about the difference in available performance at low boost versus high boost. To explain an overly simplistic example; If your 3000HP Pro Mod Drag Car can't use more than 300HP on launch due to grip levels or chassis, you will need to bypass 2700HP & this will need a much larger gate, with good manifold priority. A smaller gate may happily allow you to dial in you top end HP target, but if you're trying to get down to lower levels for whatever reason (Drive ability, launch control, valet mode, etc) you will need a larger gate for the extra bypass requirements. The most often overlooked requirement is running in a new motor... Often the manifold & gate is chosen for the HP, but the requirements for a low boost run in tune are ignored until its too late!
@@TurbosmartHQso a larger wastegate gives a larger option, as in it can do both high and low, is there any drawbacks in choosing a big wastegate or would it be better in general?
@@TurbosmartHQ i have a turbo volvo s40 1.9t and a honda civic i definitely want to try the antilag valve i bet it would sound awsome between gears and weld it myself and see how awsome it is
So I have a the stock turbo in my mk7.5 VW GTI with a Catless downpipe (I know I messed up) what size external waster gate should I get and what’s everything I would need to get with the waste gate?
Hi, very short and sweet information GOOD I liked it, I did not like the back ground music please dont use back ground music to hear and understand it better. Thank you
But what are the real dissedvatages of running a to big waste gate? All the explenations in this video make the bigger ones seme like the better option
Basically, the bigger will always give you the widest possible tuning window. The only real problem with running a larger gate than you need is technically the boost control 'resolution' when the gate physically opens off the seat. This in 99.9% of cases however is easily compensated for by any decent boost controller, including a simple mechanical boost-tee.
So let me throw my scenario out there since I didnt see you list it. Decently built 5.3L with a 88mm turbo. Would a 50mm BOV and 50mm wastegate with CO2 work well? The wastegate would have good priority and the Turbo is a T6 with a 1.09 A/R housing
There are still several variables that could effect our decision. Fuel, turbo brand, power goals, what boost it will take to make that power, how low of boost you're trying to control, etc. It would be best for you to reach out to our technical support team for recommendations so we can thoroughly understand what we are working with.
Would a 38mm be too small for a gtx3576r single scroll .82/84 (cant remember) housing with a power goal of roughly 500-550bhp? It's on a 2.8 litre v6 on a 2007 saab 9-3 Aero.
It's not the High End HP target that will dictate the gate you need - It's the low power target... So you tell us, how much of a 'tuning window' are you after? And keep in mind this is even more important if you ever need a low-boost run in tune. etc. In any case, you can visit our product advisor now live on the website which will tell you which gate we recomend. You'll need to enter the variables of your build & we'll tell you which products you'll need! www.turbosmart.com/product-advisor/
This video suggests a 50mm WG for a six cylinder, but the product advisor suggests a 60mm. 2JZ NA-T, 350hp, single G25-550. What's the right path to take here? Thanks.
Our product advisor tends to recommend products on the safer side. In this situation, we personally think the 60mm is far too large for that setup and possibly even the 50mm. You would likely be fine with our GenV HyperGate45 at that horsepower level.
What would you recommend for a tb42efi running a gt3582r, will be running in between 10-12psi, would prefer to have it a 2 bolt flange as that’s what’s currently on the bottom of my exhaust manifold

Turbosmart is underated as hell you guys have the greatest products
Thank you for the support!
@@TurbosmartHQ your welcome i was just think maybe I can make a video with some of your products I would like to have a great sponsor

i only had the one selection for my 2016wrx with the killerB header. so it was easy for me. but thank you for this very informative video for others
So 50mm wastegate for a 2JZGTE running ~62mm Turbo. Got it. Thx 👍
Sounds good to us!
4:00 when you talk about compressor wheel diameter, you're talking about the upper smaller or the lower larger diameter of the compressor wheel?
Just bought the 50mm gate for my GTX3584RS
Which is a 67mm turbo , on e85 on a barra should be perfect
So I have a the stock turbo in my mk7.5 VW GTI with a Catless downpipe (I know I messed up) what size external waster gate should I get and what’s everything I would need to get with the waste gate?

For a 5.5L v8, with a single s475.....T6 1.32 twin scroll.
Would a single 46mm suffice for 8-20psi control?
Or 2 40mm's ??
Would a Gen V Hypergate 45 external wastegate be fine for a 13B rotary with a turbo borgwarner S362 sxe (68mm turbine)?
Thanks for the video!

2.5L 8v + G35-1050 is ok with 2 40mm compgate ?
What would you recommend for a tb42efi running a gt3582r, will be running in between 10-12psi, would prefer to have it a 2 bolt flange as that’s what’s currently on the bottom of my exhaust manifold
why would you get such a large turbo to only run it at 10 - 12 psi. theres no point havning such a large turbo
im running a GTX3582R gen 2 turbo 66mm - planning to run a 6 boost high mount manifold should i run a 50mm waste or 45mm? planning to run 15-20 psi

I got the comp gate 40 on my bugeye sti, from 1500 rpm to 7000rpm it holds 20psi all the way on every gear and it's bloody loud 😈
what fuckin turbo are you running for boost at 1500rpm a td04? lol
@@CuttinChris don't have the car anymore but it was the vf35, I got sick of it cause it really stinks up the cabin lol
@@MannyG88yo i don't blame you they sound so good but its like a header exhaust leak for fuses wise but worse haha
@@CuttinChris I was going to plump it back but would of lost the noise, it was so bad my clothes smelled like I was standing in front of the exhaust
Could you please tell me the best wastegate size for rb26 with garrett g35-900 🙏🏻please reply to me as soon as possible
Go for a 50mm wastegate, for ultimate power and reliability fit a 2JZGTE lol.
IF i 1.8cc use 40mm or 30mm better
