45 deg T3 divided wastegate plate.
Basically I need a simple setup that uses my gates in an effective manor, doesn't require a new manifold (budget is tight for this build) and maintains the divide as much as one wastegate can. Don't need OR even want an internal wastegate messing up the control scheme. Dreamed this up when I was staring at the empty space on my test/tow 99 2500-

Could envision using a dual T3 or T4 type outlet flange. to uses a future box 63/68. I have several different chargers laying around I'll be test fitting. |
How do you plan on tightening the lower bolts/studs or nuts????? Wont work chief.
|
Sure it will chief.
The 45* plate could be threaded and the bolts could go in from the bottom on the engine side. The bolts on the bottom on the turbo side could be the same way. Chief. |
Or studs

If you look real close you can see my test plate has taped holes with studs already installed. Here's another pic showing the shock tower....

I had this same idea but i was thinking about using studs off the flanges

Here's my cobbled together birds nest....
http://www.jgsfab.com/smurfcomp05.jpg Gate flow should be an improvement over the narrow slot you normally see on a 'gate plate. |
cool idea!
|
Here's a slightly earlier shot (before surfacing etc.).

My humble little compounds...
