Yeah really scary..and running on 450's and a homemade map hack. I'm using an old map sensor from a '87 CRX...it doesn't seem to throw a CEL when going to 1 bar

internal wastegate...I would have to make the wastegate arm longer....Sometime ago it was shortened I made it longer...it's about stock lenght.
But the turbine is small....it only goes to 1 bar in 2nd and up in first it doesn't...I think ::) .
and the wastegate hole isn't that big either.
I will get an external one as soon as I have some money

Re:My Ghetto Fabulous Turbo Setup .... kinda finished(PICS)
 
Yeah this is my second ghetto install....I used less PVC charge pipes this time....that PVC with the PVC glue is the shieeeet...man it glues rock hard man...like melts together.
