Turbosmart Wastegate Pics / Cure for TN Overboost
Here are the pics of the Turbosmart wastegate solution for fixing my overboost problem with my TN kit. People have been requesting these.
Before anyone asks.... NO it does not hang down below the plastic shield. A hole was cut in the plastic fairing to vent this to the atmoshpere.
LOUD is an understament. But only on boost. Driving around town like a normal human being it is closed, and the car sounds normal as all the exhaust is going through the muflers out back.

You know, thinking about it, they probably used the block off plate they made for my car when we tested flipping the evolution over....90 bucks or something for that thing....I need to call them and get that sucker back!
JET, one question...did they block off your dump tube, or did they remove it and install the block plate directly on the downpipe?

The wastegate cost $520 with all the hardware and a few different springs.
Thanks for the comments.

Hopefully Turbonetics will have a pipe done late this week early next week to fix this....
And I hope it can use the Evo wg , and wont cost an arm and a leg, or will just require a trade in of my unused pipes
