OK, so my 14b was pointing up so I clocked it today and now I have the dilema of remounting the actuator for the w/g. Has anyone else done this and have any tips. I was just gonna make a new bracket to attatch it unless there are better ideas out there. OR, I go external wastegate, but that means a new mani so I guess I gotta figure out what I want/need to do. Any tips would be great. As far as external w/g's I have found Turbonetics Evolution models online for about $200. I also found a Tial for $200, so any advice on those?

You can't mount the actuator in the next set of holes, or the closest set of mount holes?

Tial WG's are sexy.

No, its just not close enough, I'll definitly have to fashion a bracket if I stay internally gated.

I haven't actually used it yet, but this mine (for now).



I made it out of the existing WG flange and some 1 x 4 straight brackets from Home Depot.

im running a 14B with a BMC adapter plate and HF manifold. the compressor housing is clocked facing upwards. I used one of the two factory bolt holes in the WG bracket and bolted it to the topmost wastegate bolt hole using about 6 washers. it holds steady 9psi.

you can add washers to space it out more for more boost, or you can use a manual boost controller like me.

Kevin, don't let us down. You should never spend $200 because you can't figure out how to "rig" something. Snap out of it!!!!!
