so i`ve read a lot about how tial wastegate gasket sucks. blown in 2 hours and stuff like that..
i didn`t belive it at first.
but i only had it on for TWO DAYS AND IT IS BLOWN NOW!!??

so where did you guys get yours at?

 

i didnt put one on. i have to problems at all.

 

Yep, don't use one. Your exhaust poop will seal it just fine.

yes, lose the gasket, just use some high-temp copper silicone, works great

 

I don't run a gasket on my turbo, because the flange surfaces are machined it seals fine.

 

You might want to try a Deltagate "Fire-ring" gasket. That's what I'm using. It has a metal ring within the gasket and it eliminates that all too common gasket blowout.

 

Where might someone find a good deal on these?

 

actually the tial came with a firering too..but it is a metal ring only,

 

Here's one place you can find them........http://www.roadraceengineering.com/f...andgaskets.htm

I actually found mine on E-bay. Someone was selling Tial wastegates that included the firering gasket. I just asked him if he sold just the gaskets....he said sure. I bought 4........

 

omg don't use the gasket. just take some sheet metal and punch a hole in it. or don't use one at all.
