An issue that has cropped up on various S2000 turbo kits is boost creep due to inadequate wastegate flow. So, we made sure we designed the wastegate flow path to have sufficient area and flow priority. To get the wastegate flow path angle relative to the runners we wanted and working within the various packaging constraints, we had to go from the circular flow cross section at the external wastegate to a shorter but wider elliptical shape where the wastegate flow pulls from the runner merge area.
Turbosmart was kind enough to send us a 3d package model of the Turbosmart WG40 Compgate that we will be using. As you can see, it’s not easy to package the external wastegate in there especially as that’s where the engine bay gets narrower. We made a simplified model of the Garrett G25-660 turbo from the 3d scan to speed things up vs. having the computing power intensive 3d scan in the modeling environment.
The downpipe and wastegate dump tube are commercially available bend sizes to make fabrication as easy as possible. I’m no fan of pie cuts. The wastegate flow will be routed into the downpipe. I did contemplate doing external dump, but those are just so freakin loud. I thought about routing the wastegate flow back into the exhaust after the cat to maximize power, but I’m planning to use a bolt-on exhaust that I don’t want to modify. I like clean air too. And my build isn’t about maximum power, so I’m willing to compromise on power for noise level and pollution control. Besides, it’s still going to be way more power than stock.
We made a rough representation of the available package space. Yup, it’s a tight fit.
From the looks of it, we’re not going to be able to keep the stock heat shield as is. You can see our manifold has the runners going up and then down to get a better angle for flow into the merge whereas the stock header heat shield goes straight out from the head. So we will probably hack away at the stock heat shield where necessary to clear the new manifold and then add some panels back to it to protect the heater hose sitting behind it. As with everything in life, compromises.
Here we checked how everything was fitting together with the engine scan. You can see how the turbine housing sits over the top of the Hasport engine mount.

We tried a few different wastegate placements including between the turbo and the block, but nothing seemed to work quite as well as our final location. Again, the benefit of having the 3d engine scan and representations of the turbo and wastegate, we were able to try out a number of layouts in 3d space. Again, the fear is boost creep. Placing the wastegate on the underside of the manifold between the turbo and block, there’s not a good wastegate flow path. I’m planning to run boost by gear using the Hondata K-Pro, so likely just base wastegate spring pressure in 1st gear and ramp up the boost depending on how much traction I get in the various gears. I imagine the full 15psi of boost in 3rd gear. Well…. actually will be targeting a torque max of 350tq at the crank as that’s what my clutch setup will limit me to. The nice thing about the K-pro is I can shape the boost curve to whatever I want to get the torque curve shape I want.
Also, when my engine was pulled to be built for boost, Project S2000 (AP1) inherited my oil cooler setup. I’m actually going to revert back to the stock oil/coolant heat exchanger donut. As the car isn’t a track car, the stock oil cooler donut will be plenty sufficient. This is my old oil cooler setup for reference: https://motoiq.com/project-s2000-oil-cooling/

I imagine the full 15psi of boost in 3rd gear. Well…. actually will be targeting a torque max of 350tq at the crank as that’s what my clutch setup will limit me to. The nice thing about the K-pro is I can shape the boost curve to whatever I want to get the torque curve shape I want.
Also, when my engine was pulled to be built for boost, Project S2000 (AP1) inherited my oil cooler setup. I’m actually going to revert back to the stock oil/coolant heat exchanger donut. As the car isn’t a track car, the stock oil cooler donut will be plenty sufficient. This is my old oil cooler setup for reference: https://motoiq.com/project-s2000-oil-cooling/
We tried a few different wastegate placements including between the turbo and the block, but nothing seemed to work quite as well as our final location. Again, the benefit of having the 3d engine scan and representations of the turbo and wastegate, we were able to try out a number of layouts in 3d space. Again, the fear is boost creep. Placing the wastegate on the underside of the manifold between the turbo and block, there’s not a good wastegate flow path. I’m planning to run boost by gear using the Hondata K-Pro, so likely just base wastegate spring pressure in 1st gear and ramp up the boost depending on how much traction I get in the various gears.
