Default External Saab Wastegate

Anyone know what if a wastegate like this would be usable? I've seen them in the wreckers but I alway wondered.

sure it'd work, looks like you might have to block off one of the inlets tho.

Never even knew saabs came with ext wg's. That thing is weird looking. Think your better off with a audi unit. Atleast with those you can just get a aftermarket spring to drop the psi from the 1bar it's set at stock.

Ya, I want an audi, but the saab one I seen locally. I think I might be a bitch to run.

I could get you a audi one if you'd trade me the burner for it

What type of truck? I've never heard of externals on a diesel truck. The only ones I know of don't run one at all or are internal.
