guys..whats the different with wastegate and waste pipe..?
waste pipe more budget right...still got good flow for the turbo..?tell me more about it..

hahahaha...
if the "wastepipe" work as a wastegate then i dont think that there r ppl putting in the R&D line to create right?

 

[monsterv6]

yala..i know la...i just want to know whats the diffrent ma...dont be so like that..i know your car already fast enough.kekek

 

[ja50n]

i also wanna know leh. if i put wastepipe liao still can put wastegate ??

 

[al_gti]

actually i also dono..


hahahhaa....

 

[ja50n]

oh ya, if i wan boost 1bar, issit neccesary to use a wastepipe or wastegate ??

 

[kotemanja]

u can control boost from a wastegate but wastepipe cant,,....

 

[ja50n]

means if got wastegate then no need boost controller ah ??

 

[monsterv6]

actually i also dono..


hahahhaa....

u dunnoe then dont talk so much la..your car i know very powerfull..hehehheh :p

 

[ja50n]

wah lau .... i really donno lor. thats why i askin mah.
and my car not powerful la. hai ....

 

[monsterv6]

not u..al gti im talkin about..heheh don take so seriously...heheh :D

wastegate is like a "gate" for wastepipe.
when the wastegate open (depend on max boost setting), the "gate" will open and dump the exhaust gas through the wastepipe.

every turbocharged engine have a wastegate to control the turbocharger from overboosting. the diff is that whether its using an internal or external wastegate. stock factory car usually have an internal wastegate on the turbo unit itself. please learn how the turbocharge work 1st.

the thing u call as a wastepipe is a piping from the wastegate(internal or external). when the wastegate open, the exhaust gas bypast the turbine and get out from the wastegate to control the turbine from overspooling(over boost). the pipe from stock car usually connected back onto downpipe. thats why theres no the wellknown wastegate sound. if u choose to seperate the pipe, the sound will be loud accept if u choose to put a muffler for your wastepipe.

there will be performance increase only if the wastegate flow into downpipe interrupt the exhaust flow from the turbine outlet. boost creept will also be reduced( if theres any) as long as the waste pipe arnt too small. the cons? nothing i can think of accept loud sound. if u say that the max boost will be hard to reach, i dont agree with that. It depends more on the wastegate setup(wastegate spring, boost signal to wastegate, etc..). hope that will help.
