ETMs kit puts it under the heat shield.

Location of wastegate would make for easy wastegate adjustments/spring changes though.Keep the photos coming I need ideas Henz... Is there something ilegal about an external wastegate? (im serious I dont know) Edited 06/05/11 06:28 AM by Marsh

Any HP will know 90% of external gates are coupled with a screamer. That turbo posted has an aftermarket manifold, they should have just put it onthere out of sight!

Its better than the 90 degree angle shown in the first pic.Here is mine prior to fitting. Edited 09/05/11 04:04 PM by XF Falcon

Looking for a shot down the turbine inlet?Also what size waste gate is that?Tochi, Twin scroll one would be ideal to see looking down the exhaust inlet did you get this sort of pic of yours?(nice Capri BTW) I was going to ask in your build thread but didn't want tO disturb
