Do you need a tune for external wastegate WRX?

For External Use Only You’ll need a tune and an EBCS for an EWG.

Do you need a tune for external wastegate?

One final note on the function of EWGs: When you put on an external gate, you will need to have your car re-tuned to get it to function properly. So if you simply install an EWG, more than likely you will not be able to go above your spring pressure until you are tuned for it.

Does an EWG need a tune?

You can install EWG without any changes minus a tune you don’t need new fuel pump, injectors, etc …. However, don’t expect big gains if you just go EWG.

Do you need a wastegate on a Cummins?

no its not necessary at all, your foot can be your wastegate if you want it too, i have a 14cm non wastegated housing on my truck and it makes zero difference, just have to know when your boost psi tops out and if your head can handle it, if your headbolts arent torqued to 125 lbs do it, its cheap insurance.

What is the point of an external wastegate?

External wastegates are commonly used for regulating boost levels more precisely than internal wastegates in high power applications, where high boost levels can be achieved. External wastegates can be much larger since there is no constraint of integrating the valve or spring into the turbocharger and turbine housing.

Where does an external wastegate go?

An external wastegate is mounted off the turbo, incorporated into the exhaust manifold compared to the plunger-style integral wastegate (sometimes called internal wastegate) that bolts to the turbo housing. Integral wastegates are the type that come stock on factory turbo cars.

What is an EWG on an STI?

An External Wastegate (EWG) allows exhaust gases to be diverted prior to entering the turbo; creating quicker turbo spool. The inlet size is 1.92″ and the pipe tapers down to 1.72” which acts as a funnel as it moves into the turbo allowing for the smoothest transition and best air-flow quality.

What happens if you have no wastegate?

With no wastegate the turbine is even more of a restriction at higher rpms and boost levels so 30psi with a welded wastegate could be no better than 25psi in a normal setup.
