Anyone had boost creep via the-after-market 2.5 or 3" down-pipe flange corner edge catching their CT 20-CT-26 TURBO's waste-gate...open?

[karammander]

this is very common on the cheater ct style downpipes, usualy people tend to open the flange up on the inside.

cheers karam

Thanks Karam,Pretty sure I have a GTS Chris, unit so do not think this Is the case with my one but just double checking all round to solve a boost-creep Issue.This point has been mentioned to me. So It Is only with the cheap units?

[jimGTS]

you sure one of chris isnt a cheaper "style" unit?
the ones with the few welds are the ones that sometimes catch.....
