which is better when running a larger turbo, i know you can dump with an internal also, which of these options is best for creep ect...

external is best with big turbos

Exactly It will defnintley control creep better. Just depends on how big your talking. I have an internally gated L2R right now with no creep at 20psi.

i've always thought externals were more efficient also, creating less turblance within the turbo.

im external on the manifold. i love the rock solid boost control but im sick of the noise

my next setup is going to be an sfp style manifold with a tuber going back into the DP.

External. it gets pretty loud if you vent to the atmoshpere with a BOV too. Then there even more noise.

I love the sounds i get from my dump, BOV, and turbo. Maybe im a ricer at heart

Would a tial external be good for say a 16g? I know its not a big turbo but Im just curious.

 

[2gdsm_nc]

what size 16g the super? and what size tial wastgate?

 

[DeezNutsForYou]

what exactly does an external wg sound like. And do they all vent to the atmosphere?

No they all don't vent to the atmosphere. Some can go back into the downpipe (they do this to bypass exhaust gases that would power the turbo). I've personally never heard what they sound like but I've heard they sound like a giant exhaust leak (which in a way it is ).

find a staticy tv channel, turn it way the #### up, and imagine that sound pulsing at3000-7000 rpm.
