Default WG size?

Sorry i have searched but i keep getting mixed reviews... i am doing a 5.3l truck manny build looking to run a mpt70 .96ar

My question is should i run a 38 or 44mm? i am going with tial and planning on running 10psi at first i am sure it will be bumped up to 15 after a short while lol

If the feed to the gate is angled correctly then a 38mm tial will be just fine on a 5.3/t70 setup.

I would do the PTE 46 mm gate without thinking about it.

Trying to keep this low cost but if thats what i need then so be it haha dont wanna skimp on the wg or bov

Is there anyway you can explain to me the right angle? just try to line it up with the flow the best you can? and try to keep the pipe as straight and the least amount of bends as possable?

Try to keep the WG angled so it receives flow. Im running a 38mm on my 5.7/t70, I havent ran it yet but it should be fine
