Need wastegate mounting question and opinions

[djj624]

Looking at 2 used wastegates one is a deltagate for 70.00 and the other is a racegate for 150.00.

delta,

race... Other question is mounting one of them, right now I have an old atr unit and where it bike to the downpipe looks a little thicker almost like one of these gates would need a spacer?

what do you guys think is the better buy?

ATR gates ..no
turbonetic deltagate ...no
turbonetic racegates ive never had any isssues with and many are still in use

if your plans are to replace the ATR ,the tial or evolution F38 gate / precision 38 early flange style are bolt in replacement

the racegate is much larger and requires flanges that no one seems to carry anymore, so you need to get it with flanges or plan to have them custom made
i did a racegate recently on an atr ext pipe but i had the flanges

on my 86 i run the atr ext pipe and i cut off my flanges and welded in band flanges for the precision pw46

The race gate and delta gate should have the same flanges as the race gate was a replacement for the delta gate

it may have replaced it but it was not a bolt on update
the racegate has similar top as the smaller deltagate but the cast base is totally different and the valve on the racegate is nearly 50mm
