Slant 6 Turbo 68Dart Project

One other thing I thought about - maybe you'd know Jr or bill, is if I could use that small hole intended for a built in wastegate on the exhaust impeller housing? That way I make my downpipe with a 3" pipe, welded to a 1" pipe that branched off a little to attach the wastegate, and then reattached to the downpipe further down. Basically - could i not run it off the J pipe and instead run it out of the housing hole designed for internal use, it is before the impeller.

I am not ignoring the question, but can't answer it because I don't understand the part about the turbo you're using having had a built-in wastegate. You are not using a GN Buick turbocharger, I think, and they are the only turbos I am aware of that have a built-in wastegate, though there are others, I am sure.

The turbo on my car is a 4-bolt flange 66mm Turbonetics (T-4?) and requires an external wastegate, and beyond that, I know nothing. Sorry for being NO HELP...:sad7:
