Need help guys with the trick turbo kit I have 2 wastegate flanges, I put the wastegate on the turbo manifold but what goes on the other one? Was there a block off plate that was suppose to come with the kit?

Ha OK now I see you added that last pic.
Does your downpipe have a recirculation opening at the top or bottom?

Nothing else on down pipe other than 2 bongs for wideband and O2 sensor

Block one off. If you don't have a dump tube for how the WG is set up now it's gonna get exhaust **** and add heat all over your engine bay

You been rippin those bongs?


Well I'm not too familiar with the Trick setup. It appears you have the option of wg location.
The lower one on the crossover was more common awhile ago and seems easier to vent to atmosphere, but can cause boost creep since it really is only doing the drivers side bank. The one on the log would be more accurate in its control... But may be harder to route if it didn't come with a recirc to dp. You can just make your own exhaust for it though.

Must have been high when I wrote that lol. I have a block off plate on order for the extra wastegate flange and I found a few exhaust dumps for a wastegate on ebay I may go with.
