RECOMMENDATIONS FOR MOUNTING YOUR ULTRA-GATE38
The mounting position of your Ultra-Gate38 will be largely
determined by your turbo and manifold setup and may be
constrained by space restrictions in your engine bay. The following
points should be considered when mounting your Ultra-Gate38.
- The optional exhaust weld flanges should be welded to
your exhaust system. The weld flanges are compatible
with Stainless Steel and Mild steel welding rod material.
-
When securing your Ultra-Gate38 use the supplied
gaskets between the weld flanges and the inlet/outlet
flanges. Use the M8X25 screws to secure the outlet
flange (Note: The bolts screw into the threaded holes on
the outlet flange). Use the M8 nuts and M8X35 screws if
needed to secure inlet flange to your manifold (Note:
Your manifold may have studs to suit so the screws may
not be necessary). Tighten the screws and nuts to a
torque of 8 Nm & lubricate with Never Seize every time
you re-fit the wastegate.
-
For best results an attempt should be made if space
allows to mount the Ultra-Gate38 at an angle to the
exhaust flow to allow for better flow than a 90 degree
mounting. See the schematic diagrams below for
examples of mounting positions.
Best Flow – Symmetric Mounting
Symmetric mounting allows an excellent flow of exhaust to the
Ultra-Gate38.
Good Flow – Angled Mounting
Angled mounting allows a good flow of exhaust to the Ultra-
Gate38.
