Best Flow – Symmetric Mounting
Symmetric mounting allows an excellent flow of exhaust to the
Power-Gate60.
Good Flow – Angled Mounting
Angled mounting allows a good flow of exhaust to the Power-
Gate60.
Poor Flow – 90 Degree Mounting
90 degree mounting gives poor exhaust flow to the Power-Gate60
and in some circumstances may contribute to over boosting.
Not recommended – Less than 90 Degree Mounting
An angled mounting as shown is not recommended and gives
extremely poor exhaust flow to the Power-Gate60.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR MOUNTING YOUR POWER-GATE60
The mounting position of your Power-Gate60 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 Power-Gate60.
- The weld flanges should be welded to your exhaust
system. The weld flanges are compatible with Stainless
Steel and Mild steel welding rod material.
-
Secure the Power-gate60 to the weld flanges with the
supplied V-Band clamps. Do not forget to put the valve
seat into the body before mounting the unit on the
exhaust manifold. Tighten the supplied M6 screws to a
torque value of 14 Nm (10 ft/lbs)
-
For best results an attempt should be made if space
allows to mount the Power-Gate60 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.
