GT15 on 1.6 shifter clearance problem

[81 vw pu]

are we talking about GT conventional turbos? or GT VNTs? cause all my info pertains to a VNT.. and in a mk1 chassis..

and the reason you hit 30 psi by 3 grand is cause the vaines are not opening far enough, and the turbo is overspooling.

I'm talking about a non-Vnt in a mk1 chassis.

Same here. A GT15 from a stock 98 Jetta 1z-AHU engine. Mine has a solenoid either vacuum or pressure controled.

Here is a pic of my turbo. You can see the wastegate actuator between the turbo and the block.
The actuator recieves pressure from the turbo to open the internal wastegate.

i really hope that intake tube is just for mock up purposes..

if you use billows hose like that, it will restrict the turbo so bad.. use as big of a feed for the turbo inlet as you POSSIBLY can.
