ebay o2 housings, wastegates questions

[supermario300hp]

Ok guys i want to run an externally gated setup, i dont want to run a wastegate off the manifold because i just bought and installed my fp manifold. I would like to keep the cost of doing this down, i know pr has the whole setup for 550 new. that is too steep for me. So i was wondering if anyone is running one from ebay? if so what do you think of them? Also i keep hearing good things about emusa wastegates, anybody using one? Lastly i found this one on ebay and im trying to understand how it will hook up to the exhaust with that flange on it. sorry for the long post, but your insight is appreciated.thanks

Looks to me you'll need a custom v-band downpipe not cheap. then find a wg that is 38mm and has identical inlet and outlet flanges. on my setup I bought a used pr tubular o2 dump and a tial 44 ewg in the for sale forums. then just picked up a flange, bolts, and gasket and had a buddy weld it up. its custom for my setup and has cost me roughly 350, cheaper but name brand parts. if you have the time just wait and constantly check the forums. otherwise buy it and post up how it goes.

You need to buy a vband flange and weld it to your downpipe or cut off the flange on that o2 housing and get one to match your downpipe.... DuricsmitGST beat me to it... haha

I guess you could cut off the v band flange and weld on a 2 bolt flange but then that defeats the purpose of being cheap

Lol thought id clarify but you beat me to it.

And i would check the classifieds for a wastegate, the emusa works very well and has proven to be very durable in the applications i have used it on. Check the classifieds, there is a brand new one for a good price that went up today!

well i already have a ss o2 housing ill be replacing, i could use the flange off of that. and i have a welder so it wont cost me anything. so basically i could run this setup for less than 200 bucks. do you think its worth it? Nobody on here is running one?
