Wastegate

[Curious Chris]

Hey guys, i was wondering if i can get a wastegate (rally chatter) for my 1.8 20vT, i know it has a recirculating turbo and i cant find any of the wastegates on the internet, but i have found ones that fit subaru impreza's which also have recirculating turbos, will the fit, if i got a fitting kit? please help

if you want the DV whoosh get yourself a CAI kit like the carbonio or k&n typhoon they are VERY loud

Not a good idea by all accounts.

As Saul says stick to cold air intakes and dump valves

Wastegate chatter = compressor stalling = short turbo life fine if your rebuilding your rally car engine every 2,000miles

so if the carbonio makes the wastegate sound its not good for the turbo etc ???

it makes the dump valve louder, it wont make wastgate chatter.

What Andy says plus the sound of induction roar and more turbo spool (whizz)
