Default Think you want an SSautoshit waste gate? Look here first!

Well Josh brought his car to my house to throw the wideband on and we took it out and he spiked to 14psi and let off. We took it back to my house and took it apart, Here is what we found.



The whole diaphragm ripped around the bottom rendering completely useless and making it a engine gernade!



So we are trying to find one locally right now, A TIAL BRAND WASTEGATE!

Everyone learns the SSautoshit lesson sooner or later, you could be next!

after seeing their manifold i dont know why anybody would trust their engine with one of ssautoshits products. just because it looks exactly the same as a tial doesnt mean its the same quality

Reguardless, its junk. We tried to find one locally and did but Josh had to go to his bank for the coin so he's getting it later. Josh and Noel just left. We will attempt his tune at a later date. I'm tuning mine tomorrow.

P.S. my new Innovate LM-1 works like a champ! Should have listened to Chris in the first place!

Yikes!

That's the first bad wastegate story that I've heard... and it's bad!

I personally wouldn't want to take a chance with something like a wastegate... good thing you let off the gas before the engine went bye bye...

I was beginning to think the SS wastegates and BOVs weren't that bad... I guess they are just like the rest of their products... I'm glad I have a Tial...
