What is the purpose of the V-band connection on this wastegate?

The V-band connection provides a strong, leak-free seal for mounting the wastegate to the turbocharger's exhaust housing. It also makes installation and removal simpler compared to traditional flanged connections.

What does the 1.24 A/R rating on the turbine housing mean?

The A/R rating (Area/Radius) indicates the size of the turbine housing's cross-sectional area relative to its radius. A 1.24 A/R housing is generally suited for applications needing good airflow at higher RPMs, balancing spool-up with top-end power.

What is required for installing this external wastegate?

Installation requires custom fabrication and plumbing to connect the wastegate to your exhaust manifold or downpipe, and to route the boost signal line to the actuator. Professional installation and tuning are highly recommended.

Product Details

This is the Turbosmart TS-1 external wastegate, featuring a V-band inlet and a 1.24 A/R turbine housing. It's built for high-performance turbocharger setups where precise boost control is critical. The V-band connection makes for a secure and easy-to-service mounting system, which is a big plus when you're working on custom turbo applications. This wastegate is designed to manage exhaust gas flow effectively, ensuring your turbocharger operates within its optimal efficiency range and prevents overboosting.

The TS-1 wastegate uses a well-built diaphragm and spring system to accurately regulate boost pressure. The 1.24 A/R housing is a specific size that works well with a range of turbochargers, offering a balance between quick spool-up and high-end flow. Turbosmart is known for making solid components for forced induction systems, and this wastegate is no exception. It’s constructed from durable materials to withstand the high temperatures and pressures found in the exhaust stream. The included V-band clamp ensures a tight seal, preventing any exhaust leaks that could compromise boost control.

When installing this wastegate, remember it's a component that requires careful integration into your exhaust and turbo plumbing. Proper plumbing for the boost signal line to the wastegate actuator is essential for accurate boost control. Because this unit is not CARB approved, it cannot be shipped to California. Always consult your turbo system's documentation or a qualified professional for specific installation and tuning recommendations to get the most out of this wastegate.
