wastegate question...

[got traction]

i have a 35mm wastegate that i got from a guy i use to work with a long time ago. but i dont know what size spring is in it....how can i figure that out?

what brand WG? if its a Tial, you can open it up and look at the color of the spring. then go on Tial's website and compare.

if its a knockoff, color doesnt matter. they are all different. hooking up a vac/pres tester is going to be your best bet

its a knock off (xs power) but it was free so i cant complain. im pretty sure its like 7.5, but im not 100% sure

get a boost gauge and you will find out fast

you best bet is to change the spring just to be safe. im pretty sure xs power and tial springs are interchangable

is it a 2 bolt? if so i might be willing to take it off your hands if you dont want it.
