Protect your turbo by releasing pressure surges when changing/shifting gears or backing off throttle quickly

WATEGATE:

Brand New High Performance 38mm External Turbosmart Wastegate.
To manage the upper-deck air pressure the turbocharger's exhaust gas flow is regulated with a wastegate that bypasses excess
Exhaust gas entering the turbocharger's turbine. This regulates the rotational speed of the turbine and the output of the compressor.
This regulates the rotational speed of the turbine and the output of the compressor. The wastegate is opened and closed by the compressed air from turbo (the upper-deck pressure) and can be raised by using a solenoid to regulate the pressure fed to the wastegate membrane.
This solenoid can be controlled by Automatic Performance Control, the engine's electronic control unit or an after market boost control computer. Another method of raising the boost pressure is through
the use of check and bleed valves to keep the pressure at the membrane lower than the pressure within the system.

Don't see any turbo manifolds in there. Can't speak to the size of the turbo- but there's only one so it's either 1/2 a kit or a piping nightmare.
Speaking of pipes- 2.5" is too small and that intercooler will never flow what you need.
Sure that's not a kit for a honda or something?

one of those turbos is not enough.

I think it would take 2 kits to even start making something.
No pics of it in a v8 setting.

Maybe it would work for a rear mount system starting point...


A lot of ebay adds have the same POS for sale and they put like 20 listings up naming it for every car made. just look for an electric supercharger if you want to see.

1 T3/T4 is too small for your V8. It would work well if there were 2 of them.

Stay very far away!

First of all that turbo is good for a 2.0L no where near big enough for your 5.7L. And there's no hot side piping.

For the C4's you're going to need a custom turbo kit. You'll probably be better off going with a supercharger if you are asking about this kit.
