waste gate install
 
i got a turbo kit and im just wondering on the wastegate install anyone know where to get instructions on how and where the different flanges go and the stainless o ring goes and what way it faces.

Turbo bolts to the manifold where the 4 bolt holes are.

The waste gate bolts to the manifold where the 2 bolt holes are. You may want to bolt the manifold on the engine to see how everything will line up and what way it's supposed to be installed.

There are many different turbo manifold layouts, so we can't tell you without seeing it which way everything goes.

Post up a pic of the turbo, manifold and waste gate. Did the waste gate come with a dump tube?

The "stainless O-ring" is also known as the valve seat, it goes into the bottom of the wastegate where the valve is, it goes with the flat side facing down.

The gaskets go in between the wastegate and the manifold, then again between the wastegate and the dumptube.

If you still need help feel free to pass by as we have "printed wastegate" instructions with pics. You’re more than welcome to have one.

Or PM if you need any help.
