what size wastegate do I need?
hey guys Im in the market for a wastegate. I have a masterpower T70 .96 on a ls1 with a turbo cam. down the road I might upgrade to a tc76. I was looking at getting a jgs 40mm gate, piston type. Will the 40 be big enough now and down the road if and when I ever upgraded the turbo.

It also depends on placement in the merge pipe as well. Its not all about size (no pun intended). You could have optimal placement and get away with a 38 or you could have really crappy placement and need a 44-60 just to squeak by. All depends on your plans for the kit. If you are going with a bigger charger down the road you're best off going big now and spending a little extra money to make sure you have what you need and only spend the money once. Just my input...
