Which external wastegate?
The T3 with custom exhaust manifold is going on. Which external wastegate shall I get? Jon wants one on that has atleast 1 bar of spring rate. He has recommended this one but we want to know what you think. If you know of a better one post up and let me know

was yours loud mate? I am a bit worried about the noise as it will be a daily drive. I am assuming it only 'whoooshes' when you put your foot down? Am I right or not?

i had an ebay cheapie too Gripo, was fine. Only problem was i ran a screamer pipe and it used to 'chuff' at idle, didnt seat perfectly until about 1200rpm. Sounded good at full throttle.
if i ran one again, i would run the ext wastegate exh pipe back into the main pipe after about a metre from the turbo. does stop the noise a fair bit and stops the scrutineers asking why i have two exhaust pipes at scrutineering  from what i know, the sizing and spring pressure is based on two things, amount of gas flow and what boost solenoid you are going to use. if you have a small to medium flow turbo, then a 60mm ext WG would be overkill as soon as it opened it would bleed off a huge amount of gas and actually cause an erratic boost curve. ideally a 38mm-45mm is fine on most turbos imho. With the spring, go for a spring rated at the minimum amount of boost you are going to run, then youre boost solenoid will bleed off enough to give you 'overboost' ie spring at 14psi, with boost solenoid closed, then say 20psi with it open. I had a problem with my boost solenoid on mine. with the boost solenoid fully open i could only get 12psi, so i guess the spring was about 7psi. i changed the boost solenoid to a 225 Audi TT version and that helped, allowing 15-16psi max. hope that helps mate CNH

fj20/et a replacement for displacement 
, they are not over load, they don't come on until on near enough full boost.they sound
