How to deal with boost creep?
I am currently running the Greddy turbo kit..
I am often enough dealing with boost creep and boost spiking..........so on the safe side I would like to install a external wastegate to help remedy the problem....
What would be the ideal size? I have access to a Tial 46 with a .5 bar spring.
I aware of all the articles stating a smaller wastegate is better matched a smaller turbo running higher boost..and a larger wastegate is matched better with a larger turbo running lower boost.....I have also read that that exhaust gas output on the rotary does change alot of these rules... I notice the RX7 guys are typically running 46mm.
Any input?

I am using a Profec B Spec II but had problems before the boost controller was placed in. The problems became more significant when my mid pipe was gutted as well.
Hey Scott, I haven't heard back from you in regards to the Modified Mag situation. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
