#75049, "Star wastegate"


          

Has anyone taken the star wastegate over 15psi, has it held the boost steady? It would be the deltagate II, just give me your experience with it, thanks.

do you mean by adding a stiffer spring? Or with a boost controller? If its with the boost controller, then yes.

from your sig it looks like you have a nice hks ebc already so you should have no issues w/ your wastegate holding, i didnt at least. I ran 19-20 through it daily. On thing that I didnt like was its inability to hold all the way shut in partial throttle situations so i eventually bought a 38mm tial. Now i have no issues w/ boost creeping out prior to my boost setting.


400whp or bust.

Somethings wrong with either my deltagate or my hose-ery...or my EVCIV... Not controlling boost at all... I removed all the spring preload I think I can before the bolt just drops out... now its down to like 3-4psi (ebc is set to .1bar)

Should an ebc be able to go to a lower psi than the spring?
