^ very nice. Easier to see the gauge when you watch in on youtube instead of the embedded vid.

Looking at Evodad's exhaust manifold, it looks to be an IWG turbo.

It is external... The manifold does not have the wastegates on yet in the pic.

well I am looking for results of 7670 with internal gate. its the only turbo that really interests me in the lineup. having to add twin after market waste gates and all the plumbing to go with it is not something I would be interested in for a daily driven streetcar.

Btw In case nobody noticed, Garrett/ATP now sell their Twin-scroll Evo X hotsides with IWG separately, available for both the GT30 and GT35 turbines, in 0.73 and 0.94 A/R

Wow, 1992, how the heck did I miss that? Oh yeah, was married.

Hey I noticed in the BW charts there is a "Super Core" which comes without the turbine housing and wastegate parts. Looks like an open invitation to anyone who wants to produce their own turbine housings for these turbos. A vendor lists the super core for minus $269 from the price of the full turbo.

i run 7670 iwg on suby, full boost by 4200 rpm on pump, iwg works perfect! no need all the extra costs for ewg`s The cool thing when i floor the gas pedal i see instant 5 psi, before on 35R i had to wait for it to come in, see more in blog in my signature,

Wait a minute - the link says:
After trying many different ways to control boost the only solution i found working is 4 Port Mac solenoid and Perrin Dual Port WG Actuator! The original Borg Warner mechanism isnt good enough for STI engine because so much back pressure the spring just cant hold the door shut!
You mean the waste gate was blowing open? You had to fix it with a Perrin actuator?
