Not sure where to throw this but Wastegate question
 
So on my lq4 s480 build im using the twin scroll set up and deciding where to go on waste gates. Really think the two wastegates is the best way to go but most people say the big 60mm is just fine. What do you all think? What are the pros and cons of running one big or two say 44mm gates.

i dont build them and really have limited experience with them. but you want to adequately size the waste gates so you dont get boost creep. single turbo? why run 2 wastegates? seems a Waste haha to me. one single the right distance and size from the turbo and you should be good? i could be wrong its been a LONG!!! time sence ive looked into this shit.

Doug merge into one 60 mm will be more than big enough!!! theres plenty of huge springs availible for a 60mm>
if anything run divided crossover with the double 38mms anything over twin 40s would be complete overkill. just seems like a lot of pipe merging for really nothing but to achieve the same thing a 60mm would put out for you. Get a 60mm i have a box full of brand new springs !!!

What would you guys go with a Precision 66mm wastegate or the Tial V60mm I personally think tial is the best you can buy but if soneone else has some insight id like to hear it. Precision is almost 200 cheaper,.....Tial is made in the us
