RECOMMENDATIONS FOR MOUNTING YOUR HYPER-GATE45


The mounting position of your Hyper-Gate45 will be largely determined by your turbo and manifold setup and may be constrained by
space restrictions in your engine bay. The following points should be considered when mounting your Hyper-Gate45.


-

The weld flanges should be welded to your exhaust system. The weld
flanges are compatible with Stainless Steel and Mild steel welding rod
material.

-

For best results an attempt should be made, if space allows, to mount
the Hyper-Gate45 at an angle to the exhaust flow to allow for better flow
than a 90 degree mounting. See the schematic diagrams below for
examples of mounting positions.

-

The inlet and outlet of the Hyper-Gate45 is compatible
with turbo systems manufactured for use with other
manufacturers 44mm wastegates. If your exhaust
manifold uses another manfacturers 44mm wastegate
flanges, you can mount the Hyper-Gate45 directly on
using the included valve seat and V-band clamps.

-

Secure the Hyper-Gate45 to the weld flanges with the supplied V-Band
clamps. Do not forget to put the valve seat into the body before mounting the
unit on the exhaust manifold. Tighten the supplied ¼” screws to a torque
value of 14 Nm (10 ft/lbs)

PORT BLANKING PLUGS AND PRESSURE NIPPLES


The Hyper-Gate40 is supplied with 2 X 1/16NPT nipples and 2 X 1/16 NPT plugs. These are installed in the lower and upper diaphragm
housings depending on the boost control hook up to create an air tight volume above or below the diaphragm so that air pressure can
control valve movement. Single port hook ups require a nipple and plug to be installed only on the lower diaphragm housing while two
port hook ups
require a nipple and a plug to be installed in both lower and upper diaphragm housings. Use thread sealant on the
threads of the nipples and plugs to prevent leaks.




















VALVE SEAT

The valve seat must be installed in the wastegate before mounting it onto the exhaust manifold. Failure to install the valve seat will
result in very limited boost produced by the turbocharger as the exhaust gases flow between the void where the valve seat normally sits
and the valve instead of flowing through the turbine.
