The Straight external Wastegate is designed for use with a turbocharger that does not have an internal wastegate.
-
Consult your local specialist before setting your desired boost pressure, setting boost beyond your engines capability may result in engine
damage.

-
Correctly setting up a sensible boost control strategy to ensure engine safety is highly recommended.
RECOMMENDATIONS
-
Allow for adequate cool airflow around actuator.
-
DO NOT Mount the wastegate so that the actuator is less than 100mm from a heat source.
-
DO NOT wrap the body of the wastegate with exhaust wrap.
-
Fitting your Straight Wastegate may require fabrication or modification to your exhaust manifold. Turbosmart recommends that your
wastegate is fitted by an appropriately qualified technician.
-
Turbosmart recommends that the engines Air/Fuel ratio is checked while setting the desired boost pressure, as any increase in
boost pressure can cause the engine to run "LEAN", resulting in possible engine damage.
