Has anybody heard of "godspeed" wastegates?
 

Has anyone heard of a brand named godspeed? They make external wastegates and they come with a 1 yr. manufacturer warranty. So any thoughts? :102:

Google "godspeed wastegate" and you get tons of results. :D

EDIT... fixed thread title so people actually know what the topic is.

i bet snw's on that forum lol

Well I was going to use this one for a month or two then go with tial.

Why don't you save that money and put it towards the Tial? Seems like a waste to buy a cheap temp one... do it right the first time.

Well I am installing a turbo for the first time and want to make sure everything works properly. i would rather waste 1-- rather then 2--.

heres my math on that...

you buy the $1?? one and asuume your system works... now your down almost $3?? because i don't think i would buy a used "godspeed" wastegate off of ebay and you still want to get the Tial wastegate...

if the system dosent work your out $1??, done

if you go ahead and get the Tial wastegate for $2??, and your system dosent work im pretty sure you could sell a used tial wastegate for $1??...

so it looks about the same either way, your gonna lose $1?? lol

I dont like your math. lol.

i don't like math period! :biggrin:

godspeed isnt a bad company at all...

well if i was doing a turbo project i wouldn't mind using some of their stuff...

it looks to be of a higher quality than i thought

not yet, im also going to try punishment racing, i hear they do quality stuff for a good price, havent checked their site yet though so idk if they sell anything helpful to us Z guys.

about the same from the looks...

except they only sell stuff that is non mechanical under their name, like a bitchin FMIC kit for my car for sooo cheap. and O2 housing. otherwise they sell TiAL wastegates for a pretty decent price.


oh and the GT series turbos are SOOO ****ing cheap on godspeed... its crazy cheap.....

i picked a tial 38mm for 150. lightly used.
