Oh and preliminary pricing is around $8700 with the CJM Stage 2 fuel system
Stage 3 with dual pump hanger will be a tick more.

Is there anyway to get the wastegates to dump to atmosphere instead of recirculated.

I sincerely doubt it. Probably as a tuner kit...

Only if you've got any sort of restriction in the exhaust, as it relieves backpressure. So, yes, it usually does.

Very rarely..... Only if you run a very restrictive exhaust like stock and try to make 800 HP. In most of our 1000-1500 RWHP supra builds we recirculate the WG.

The biggest problem with open dumps is that you cannot hear anything if a problem arises. Not to mention that it get the engine compartment and underside of the car very dirty.

A turbo motor at 20-50 psi makes a wonderful sound..... no need for it to sound like a beater with an exhaust leak.
