I'll let you know as soon as it goes in, I just got the spool stage 1 and it looks pretty good except I have to fab a few pieces. It should be on in the next couple of weeks.

i have to ask this, but why do you want an external wastegate on your car?

Me? well I really didn't have a choice, I just wanted a turbo that wouldn't run out of breath so soon. It can barely hold boost at higher rpm levels. From what I have read the external wastegate is better for holding boost and does not fluctuate as much, though I have never had a car with an external wastegate.

actually I was talking to the op :) but in the same thing the internal wastegate turbos will hold way more boost than you will ever need
