lol...kinda like how i blew mine up the second time because my gauge line had a tear in it and i was running twice as much boost as i thought i was for about two weeks. Ive had the wg can break off the mount, but never the rod (i guess that would happen next if i left it that way)

i rebuilt my motor 3 times in less than 2 months, and dave, i'm finally ready to compare broken ringland collections >:D just go forged this time, save yourself the trouble of having to do it again in a month. 20 psi with with 15° of timing on pump gas, no worries here, i would boost more but that's as high as my boost gauge go's :P forged internals and turbo's are like peanut butter and jelly.

Internal wastegates just suck, especially for higher boost levels. Oh and when your racing, you should always be watching your boost gauge, thats the only thing my eyes are ever glued to ;)
