picked up 40whp. better boost control. reduced turbulence in the j-pipe because the waste gate is not dumping in the turbine flow.

It won't be a problem, honestly. The EBC just can't correct over what your wastegate spring pressure x2 is. You can have it MAX and it'll still only do twice the spring pressure.


This just boggles my mind. No freakin' way are EBCs limited in this way.
If they are, there's ways to plumb them to get around this.

This is madness.

i dont know if all ebc work that way. i had a jgy bb37 turbo with a 7lb spring and i could boost 20+ psi with my EBC. **** at 20 psi it was only bout 3/4 turned up.

Hey what up Mr.sentra specV! I will confirm that as well cause im running that turbo in my car now and 20 psi all day long. Man were you right after 14 psi this thing pulls like a freak!

Gomba personally I run internal right now and have no issues with it, although I have seen dyno proof that there about 40whp to gain from going external, I plan to do so soon but I will be keeping my mani in tact and purchaseing a mani from someone already welded.

Forge or ATP have the best ones I think.

Okay, let me rephrase...

most typical EBC's correct up to 2x spring pressure, or pressure sensed. With that being said, I have only played with them to the point that you can run twice the spring pressure. Sure there may be other ways around it, but I'm not personally aware of them. I've only experienced a limited brand of EBC's so I'm only speaking from first hand knowledge.
