Re: Wastegates...
I have a PROGATE from Innovative Turbos....its a 42mm valve. I plan on using it with my pte63 turbo, atr headers, and 3"atr downpipe. I heard MIKE LEE from RPM say something about getting a different flange for the wg to mount to the dp?! Where do I get it? ---

Re: Wastegates...
Your post implies you are overboosting...
the atr wastegates are notorious for being crappy. In my expirience, however they usually dont like making alot of boost. There are some guys who rebuild them and mod them to work better. Or you can run a 38mm Tial, Turbonetics, or ITS wastegate in place. They all take the same wg flange.
The 38mm is fine.. Plenty for a 62 turbo. A 42mm wouldnt hurt but will require re-configuring of both the inlet and outlet pipe of the wastegate.. A 46 or 60mm wastegate not only would require a v-band flange, but would be completely pointless mounted off a turbine housing. Placement of the wastegate is just as critical as the wastegate itself.

Re: Wastegates...
I can put a 38 mm tial in the place of the atr without any mods? It will bolt-up no with no problems on a atr downpipe. I hate to waste the money it it doesn't work... Just making sure not doubting your judgement.......

Re: Wastegates...
Ordered a turbosmart ultra gate with their 2 stage boost controller.
Should be fun now......
