I went boosted about 3 years ago and have been really lucky on not have any issues with it since. Well I have been smelling exhaust in the car pretty bad this year and the car has been slow to boost lately. So I thought since the winter is here I would break it down and I would check it out. Well my right W/G (Tial 38mm) gaskets blew out. There was nothing left. I bought a new gasket for the inlet side but on the outlet it has I guess its called the protruding valve seat. Now I can't find a gasket that will fit over that ring anywhere. Now the question is do I need an adapter flange that goes of that and makes it flush so it will sit right or is there another gasket that I havent found yet. I checked my old Greddy instructions on the install. All it says is to install provided gaskets but it doesn't show you the gaskets. It doesn't even show them on the parts list. Please feed me some knowledge.

 

they r tial wastegates if i remember...so look up tial's website or talk to a vendor ?

 

I have. All it shows is " 2 ea gaskets included". They also look like the same size diameter. The outlet with the valve seat requires it to be larger.

 

tial gaskets almost always blow out..

you need the turbonectics wastegate gaskets with the fire ring

Those are the same ones I bought for the inlet, but the problem is the outlet. The valve seat sits out too far. Those gaskets wont go around the ring of the valve seat. Thanks though
