i dont see why it wont. E's closes...

But a sol with an LS/T won't close without modification, so....just don't slam the fucker down like Charles did, lol. If I remember correctly, it was his wastegate that got fux0red when he tried to close it.

 

[EGLSHB]

i also don't have a gay-style manifold that puts the wastegate up top OVER the motor line like most POS manifolds do.

Nice work! Thanks for posting the pics and updating. This is a really informative thread IMO. (esp with all the pics) Keep up the good work! Whats next?

 

[posol]

wires.... and lots of 'em
getting a distributor
injector harness...
axles, starter bolt, blah.. too much cshit

 

[phunky.buddha]

What's so bad about mounting the wastegate up high like that?

 

[posol]

its not "bad"
it just induces spikes. it gets the majority of its "reading" from one or two ports, instead of the collective whole like mine does. so even though cyl 2 is seeing 10 psi, cyl 3 and 4 might be throwing in enough exhaust to make 15 psi

and its not the height or where it is... its where it gets the reading from the runenrs

 

[h82w8]

it's above the top of the engine the hood will hit it.

That's what I was thinking... so it's not placement, it's just the fact that most of the
"crappy" designs place the wastegate on top like that, right?

 

[posol]

yeah-- most of the time. its "easy" to jsut stick a pipe on...

take the drag kit:

cyl 1 and PART of cyl 2 send 99% of the reading to the wastegate. 3 and 4 jsut fire away at the turbo, inducing spike

 

[zcrex]

my friend has had his drag kit on his ls for a year at 7-8 psi and hasn't had any problems what so ever. maybe it's because he wasn't boosting that much. but i agree. EL FR mani > drag mani.

 

[get_nick]

so the drag kit sucks? what are some good kit's that people have access to without building one.

 

[saturn_boy96]

nobody said the drag kit sucks, just the wastegate placement.

 

[Seany-izzle]

so with an internally wastgated turbo you dont necessarily have this problem???
