Default Re:wastegate dump

not worth it for only 8psi...actually it would be better because the wastegate is gonna always be open and the extra flow would help...kind of....it's difficult to explain but if your wastegate is always open you have less exhaust to use to spool the turbo up.(more lag) So you need a higher wastegate setting to get the same psi in the intake manifold. Sorry if it sounds like I'm on crack but it's the truth. I would get an )2 housing eliminator Downpipe from Hahnracecraft.com or RoadRaceengineering.com
and call it a day
