huge charge cooler. 19 litre capacity of water. two cossie intercooler cores inside it. it mounts low down at the back.
garage19 is just finishing it off for me now
martin. will do. I think I may need a second or larger wastegate than the 38mm though

much more and you need a 42mm one

basically the bigger the turbo and the lower the boost you wanna run, the bigger the gate needed so less gas goes thru the turbo.

Probably, at bedford I will be running on wastegate pressure only (if its even run in by then to go at all as still got a lot left to do) which is only 0.7 bar

Bit of a rubbish spec really Chip
also don't you mean XER steel crank
Did you run a ecotec crank pulley and the ecotec multi belt bottom pulley to get round the different bolt arrangement ?

Shame cause relatively speaking for a light fwd car of that power, that one was actually pretty good as it was on big shafts and a quaiffe diff.

Im not sure myself when surrey meet is, it was meant to be yesterday based on the "first tuesday of the month" principle, but I assume its been moved as that was new years day of course.
Just need to get the engine run in and onto the autronic now

Looks like it will be fun when done
![Big Grin](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
As you know, the problem with waste gate exit is to get it to flow well in both directions with out one impeding the other too much.
Toughest test will be when Chip is running 0.7bar to run in.
I have done a quick MS paint drawing to better show the actual angle/take off from above.

Probably, at bedford I will be running on wastegate pressure only (if its even run in by then to go at all as still got a lot left to do) which is only 0.7 bar
My manifold flows very well towards the gate, and i struggled with a 38mm gate to hold 1.4 bar, it crept to around 1.6 at top rev's. (GT35, Strokered Evo)
Still though, only 1 way to find out, awesome car, what exhaust housing is on the turbo? 0.63?
Is the screamer going into the exhaust?

TBH while im running it in, I can always just adjust the throttle position to limit flow on the way in as well.
Will still be nice to get it out on track for a bit of a "shakedown" even if the wastegate control struggles at the level of boost I want to be running that day.

What turbine housing were you running on the GT35? I know some of the GT/HKS hybrid evo turbos seem to run very tight exhaust housings eg Hks GT25/40.
I guess we will just suck it and see.
