Here is my question. I have an external 40 mm wastegate that I bought and need to install. I have two choices to go with here as in exhaust types.

1. is tubular exhaust manifold and a tubular o2 housing.
2. is 2g ehaust manifold and 2g o2 housing.

The first choice would be easier to weld to. But I also know that they break easily with the weight of it all.

The second choice I have heard different things about. Like it is hard to weld to, or should I say vertually impossible for a good weld.

I would like all the input I can get on this. Thanks guys in advance! biggthumpup.gif

I don't understand why that's stopping you. Drill out the wastegate in the turbo, weld a separator in the tubular o2 housing to prevent cross-over, bada-bing, you're there. Or is there something that I'm missing?
