Considering RB and Vargas use their own wastegate design is it possible that the WGDC between them is different?
For example, and this is only for example sake:
Vargas stg2 turbos will hold 21psi of boost at 4000rpm with 70% WGDC
RB's new fully upgraded turbos will hold 21psi of boost at 4000rpm with 55% WGDC
Now what I'm asking, is it possible that even though the RB WGDC is lower is it possible that the actual flappers are applying a similar amount of pressure to the CHRA.
To put it another way is it possible RB's wastegate are stronger per WGDC percent then Vargas's?
The reason I ask this is because of the recent thread BQ/WEDGE 335xi w/ RB Turbos - 607 AWHP / 618 AWTQ w/ TFT inlets w/ Sub 50% WGDC.
Awesome results, They seem to be accurate. Congrats to everyone involved there. :eusa-clap:
No doubt Rob really has his hybrid setup on point now. But what I don't believe is these are 700whp turbos. I'll admit I'm no pro on turbo technology and from my armchair I can only speculate but considering people are strapping big singles on with basically no intakes to make 700whp I'm thinking these things must be about tapped out airflow wise mathematically. (I know these numbers have been crunched before, I'll admit I don't remember them or how to find them)
So whats going on here? I'd love to hear everyones opinion and the math as long as vendors keep it clean. :paddle:....;) thanks
