wastegate question

hey i have a 38mm tial wastegate that i just got, do i need to have the exhaust gas release hooked up to a dump tube or can i just leave it open… i have nothing to hook up to it and run it out the exhaust…

make a custom dump tube that extends out of the engine bay. all you need is a flange and have it custom made for your application

u dont “need” anything. It is just if u want exhaust to run about in ur engine bay. personally u dont need one

You dont have to do anything but as pointed out you will dump exhaust in your engine bay. At the very least run the exhaust out of the bay.

Your car will also be a bit louder if you dont recirculate wastegate exhaust back into the exhaust.
