Default I'm gonna get beat up for this.

...I'm hesitant to ask because I feel I'm going to get some ---- for this one, but is it possible to change an internally gated turbo to an externally gated turbo?

I read the other day about some guy wanting to change an externally gated to an internally gated turbo ( no clue why), but I'm just curious if it's possible to go from an internal wastegate to an external wastegate.

God damn I'm a n00b.

Of course it is possible........you ------- noob. :P

You need a block off flange for the wastegate(or if you're really cheap you can just clamp the wastegate shut)and of course the external wastegate with the proper manifold.

Excellent. Now plans are working better than I had previously thought. Now I just need info on those freakin' Rank1Racing manifolds.

Excellent! My n00b post retains a good quality. Clever clever.

I think this will be my only n00b post sinc everything else, at least in my head, I already have squared away and figured out.
