Default

too small = boost creep too big = a wavy boost curve. The less exhaust you have to bypass the smaller your wastegate can be, so if you have a turbo setup that can make 30psi but you are going to have the boost controller set to 8 you need a big motha waste gate. If your turbo's are gonna max at 13psi and your set to 8 it won't need to be that big. Give Gtm a call about sizing for your particular turbo choices and desired boost levels.
