yeah I know it will be better if I run a external wastegate my question was if the stock t3 turbo wastegate I not working and I have a wastegate from 14b will it work the same that having the stock t3 wastegate ????

i doubt it will fit. do you know exactly what wasnt working? the flapper? actuator? i have a spare t3 actuator from a chrysler new yorker that would work with a little finagling and im sure you can find an o2 housing with a good flapper somewhere on here or ebay.

what I did I'd I cut the 14b actuator on the middle of the pin for about 2 inches and weld it together so the wastegate is all of way close just like a normal internal wastegate my question was will that affect my boost in any way or the way or it will be better if I get the stock t3 wastegate

do a search for the different wg pressures on google...i doubt they are the same, i think the 300zx one is real low isnt it?
