Hi all,
I will be using a Homologation ST-205 CT20b turbo (steel turbine) with my new setup, and want to clock the turbo to accomodate the FMIC piping setup, which is of my own design.
Would it be easier to get a custom bracket fabricated for continued use of the internal OEM wastegate, or should I go with an external wastegate. I am using a JDM SS exhaust manifold, which I can modify to allow for an external wastegate flange.
I plan on running about 17-18psi boost on this turbo (engine is a modified gen2 with JE pistons and with gen3 cams). I plan on using an electronic boost controller of some sort.
Can I get some opinions on which route I should go? At this stage my main consideration is what is less hassle and within a budget.
