Default Bigger gates on existing flanges?

370” GT94/102

I have 2 40mm gates and can’t control the boost above 7200~ rpm.

So, either don’t rev that high, or do something about it.

These gates are mounted to the Motion Raceworks flanges they make. Does anyone know if there are larger gates that use the same v-band flange size?

Appears to be 3" hotside correct? So are you using the 60/66 merge with the reducer for 40mm gate? https://motionraceworks.com/products...40389552308364

Who's gates are those, JGS?

There's another guy with a similar setup on YB right having this same issue and the guys there seem to be leaning towards the PID needing more dialing in.
