Hey guys going to get a 50 trim wiht all supp mods. Do i go internal gate or external. Im kinda short of cash. I heard about boost creep with internal? Will i regret it in the long run wiht internal?
 
if you are short on cash...it seems that you must get the internal. if not, you will have to pay extra money for a externally gated manifold that is flanged for a wastegate, plus you will have to buy the wastegate, and the dump tube that comes off the wastegate. That is a lot more money then if you just went internally gated. So if cash is the issue, do that, if not and you can hold out...of coarse it is better externally gated, why do u think it costs so much. LOL. Save your money is my advice and do it right the first time.
 
I just got an AGP RS49 was going to go for their kit but cheaped out at last minute.Actually it worked out better to buy things a piece at a time so got evo 02,evo manifold and internally gated RS49 50 trim.
They use a big valve think 38mm..Hopefully it will hold 25 psi or so on race gas ,99% of time plan to run car around 19 to maybe 20 psi on the street.

I guess if don't like the internal will switch to manifold or o2 mounted wastegate down the road.

On some pte turbos they cut the housing between wastegate hole and exhuast hole.So with them it might be harder to reverse that if you want to go external later.

I think I might have a problem if tried to run 15psi but have no intentions of doing that.Almost sure can run 20psi with my support mods especially after get a good fmic and mabye if necessary alco/water injection.
