    I am seeing lots of boost spikes with my 44mm waste gate especially in 3rd gear so I opted to get a turbo smart 60mm I found on the summit scratch and dent rack for 300.00.
    Now comes the issue. Where to mount it?
    I've had guy post in this thread saying just mount it on the crossover tube but I believe this might lean the driver bank out more than the passenger side. Here's the link to the other thread I initially started.

    Im looking at all aspects of flow. Will it affect the driver side bank more or will I just benefit more bleed off if I somehow mount it on the merge if all possible. Im just worried about leaning conditions .I got a pretty penny in this engine and im not wanting any quirks.

    Only about 15 years late to the thread but what you're talking about won't make one bank leaner than the other. Wastegating one bank doesn't mean one bank is seeing more or less fuel than the other.
