What a peculiar place for a wastegate flange. I wouldn't think a wastegate would fit at that location on our cars. You'll most likely need a block-off plate. Also, the welding around that flange looks weird. Like some sort of copper JB Weld stuff. Is that just the lighting?
It's made by Turbonetics. That's their mark on the compressor side.
it is welded there i was thinking of just putting a plate there i seen on most ep kits the waste gate flange is on the header i did find another pic on google where it had allmost the same look but where they they put the L fittin on this one it looked alot smaller in the picture
Its pretty common to have a wastgate on the turbine housing. It provides more flow then internal and its better than redisigning the manifold. works pretty good IMO.Originally Posted by groovezog
Its been brazed
Looks to be about a T3 super 60. If your inclined, pull the compressor housing off and measure the inner and outter compressor diameters and I will tell you what trim it is and get you a map of it.

how would i measure it jus better off taking it to machine shop or something
I bet it does work good, just not sure on an EP. I don't think the wastegate would fit between the engine and firewall with a log manifold, or with a sidewinder manifold I think the wastegate would be pointing straight up.
