HKS GT Wastgates for sale I have these two wastegates for sale. I'm looking for $450.00 each.
New in the box. I bought them thinking I might use them but ended going with a diferent setup.
HKS GT WASTEGATE: 24.2-29.9 PSI
HKS-1405-RA028
Product info:
The GT Wastegate is the highest flowing of the HKS Wastegates. Its 60mm diameter valve is design to accommodate high output applications producing from 600 horsepower to well beyond 1000 horsepower. The adjustable rate GT wastegate spring is specifically engineered to provide ample resistance to the extreme exhaust pressure developed by these high output applications. The enhanced diaphragm and spring design being provides stable consistent boost levels by preventing the valve from over opening and releasing exhaust energy. Despite its complex structure, the GT Wastegate is a very compact unit that utilizes a V-band inlet and outlet structure that provides extremely smooth flow characteristics and better sealing at high temperatures. The use of V-band clamps also offers extremely versatile mounting and adjustment options for custom applications.

For those of you who have emailed me with questions about these wastagates. You can definitely change out the springs in order to adjust the base boost setting.
Here's a link to the HKS website that lists the types of springs you'll need to combine in order to achieve the boost levels you're looking for.

GT Wastegate Spring boost options:
8.5 - 14.2 psi 0.6~1.0 kgf/cm2 58.8~98.1 kPa
12.8 - 18.5 psi 0.8~1.3 kgf/cm2 88.3~127.5 kPa
18.5 - 24.2 psi 1.3~1.7 kgf/cm2 127.5~166.7 kPa
24.2 - 29.9 psi 1.7~2.1 kgf/cm2 166.7~205.9 kPa
By mixing and matching your springs to their chart you can adjust your base boost levels. Thier design eliminates the boost creep of some other gates.
