Forgive me if these are obvious but I’m new to this platform and am trying to weigh the differences / risks when using external wastegates vs kits that retain the stock external gate.
Can anyone please provide feedback, I’ve searched most of the forum.
Specifically tuning differences and any downsides in needing to use a boost controller.
Is it harder to tune & control? Do they flutter on these cars? Has anyone had overboost scenarios, due to hardware or tuning issues, melted or leaking vacuum / boost lines?
I think my short term power goals of 700ish warrant keeping the electronic WG and going with the Remnant kit, but the ricer in me really wants top mount & external gates. Because long term, would likely drop in pistons and rods, to shoot for an 800-900 reliable street build.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.
