Default Need Help Sourcing APS Product

I'm looking for the external wastegate piping for the APS Single Turbo. I've called Forged, IP, GRD, and Z1 - nobody's got it. I realize it's basically impossible to get APS products these days, but if someone has one out there in stock I'm looking to buy. 2nd alternative is to just have one made, which shouldn't be too difficult.

Mods, if you'd like to move the thread that's cool I just figued since this was related to the turbo kit + high traffic I'd start here.

Best bet is to see if someone is willing to part out a junk kit.

You could also try DynoComp in AZ. They used to be a dealer.

I'll most likely try and get something made, probably the easiest route it seems. That said, if someone comes across one or knows where I can get it, shoot me a pm.

Thanks for the input guys, much appreciated.

you could always tap the crossover pipe and put a wastegate there. not ideal since it will disturb exhaust flows, but its been done and alot cheaper :/. and to all the people who hate i have over 25K on my motor this way, since the aps ext wastegate was insuffiecent and i overboosted with the 38mm wastegate, threw a 44mm and its rock solid

wow how much psi did you over-boost by? if i'm having a custom one made, it just might be easier to go with a 44mm tial in the first place...
