Default What wastegate should I use?
I'm trying to pick a wastegate out that will control my turbo. I'm going to be using a single PT7675. I want to try and eliminate boost creep as much as possible. I am able too use a 38mm or 46mm WG with my kit. I know you get what you pay for so if I have to spend a few bucks not a big deal. Looking to by between 10-12 psi for now.

I do like that it's V-banded for easy removal to change the spring when needed.
