Just got a Tial wastegate...question
Got me a 38mm tial wastegate for Christmas today. For those who have one, is there only supposed to be two bolts included even though there is two flanges and 4 bolts needed? Not a big deal, but I would like to have eveything it is supposed to come with for what they cost.
Also, not that it matters at the moment since this won't be used for a couple months, but why are there two nipple things?
Oh, and I got the .4 bar spring with it.

The nipples are there for two reasons. The bottem one - closer to where the current flange is - attaches to the compressor outlet nipple that you will put in. This is what opens up the wastegate whenever it sees .4 bar. The other nipple is what attaches to the boost controller - if you want one. If you don't use a boost controller - then that upper nipple just sits there - you don't even have to close up the nipple.
