Turbo help please...
Anybody in the know!?
Here is the turbocharger as fitted to the ERST:
As you can see the wastegate is not fitted into the exhaust housing as I initially thought. I thought it was mounted like so:
Now, I've rotated the turbo 90 degrees, so the exhaust elbow is now facing towards the engine block. I was planning on just making an adaptor to go in place of the elbow. But now I see the wastegate is mounted in it, that pretty much knackers that idea.
So, I know that the 2wd Cosworth exhaust comes straight out, but will it include the wastegate? Does anybody know of part I need fitted to any other cars?
In case your not quite following, I want the exhaust flange to be where the red line is:
Thanks in advance for any help!
