New custom stock frame turbo design

[Chris@VargasTurboTech]

Other platforms add external wastegates because the oem gate either can't flow enough or has trouble staying closed at higher hp levels. This is not a problem on N54 - OE style wastegates have done over 700 whp on pures, MMP, etc.

The only explanation here is whoever put this contraption together ate too much glue as a child.

Our car runs OEM vacuum style wastegate control, and makes well into the 900'sWHP, soon to be more. On 100% Stock style wastegates on a set of GC's we did almost 850WHP. The factory N54 wastegate system is better than an EWG system for all intents and purposes as it offers much more precise control. They can rattle if not set up right, but that is the only drawback.

Assuming you mean EWG as external wastegate here, and not electric. Just wanted to clarify. Someone needs to come up w/ a better acronym for electronic gates

Nothing is better than an Electronic wastegate, the control options are endless, but unfortunately its very hard to implement if not installed from the factory, and tuned via the factory ECU. I am sure Stand alones like Motec, etc may have it already, if not I assume its coming soon.
