Go with the 38mm it'll take you 5 minutes to fab up a dump tube, and you dont have to modify your up pipe

BTW will the spring from the TN wastegate work in the Tial? I know I know, it's a shot in the dark...

I think the TN wastegate is kinda slow on reacting to a quicker revving engine, or maybe there's something wrong with mine

Basically overboosting in lower gears makes no sense to me.

4th and 5th are the most likely to overboost, since thats where you usually are when racing and with the most load on the wg. However I do agree that with a lighter flywheel that the turbo will see a higher volume of air faster and possibly overwhelm the WG but it would also be seen at the higher gears as well.

How is this attached to the piping, is it off the flange or welded straight to the piping if its welded, was it cut off or is that piece inclusive. I know this is way OT, but I am feeling lazy and havent searched for your for sale thread.
What PSI Spring is in there?
How long has this been used?
I will be sending payment ASAP. Wednesday is fine. I still need a return fuel setup and 550cc injectors. Not to mention UEGO & Gauges...

Boost was rock solid @ 14.5 psi. It never went over that and it never crept. The manual boost controller has something to do with that as well.
This is welded straight to the pipe but at an angle. The whole reverse y-pipe is included. You just have take the old y-pipe out and put this on in it's place. There are several spring that come with the WG. I forget what's in there. They are color coded and you just need to look at the color odf the spring. There are 2 in there now. A 7psi inner and an outer. Maybe the outer is 5. Take it apart and check it out. There are a few more I have as well I will send you. I think there is about 12,000 mi on it.

Also the 350Evo flywheel wieghs the same as the tilton so that could be another opt.
