You can weld a block off plate onto the other whole and the then just run wastegate.
Many people do that.
Works fine!

Is it a manifold setup for twinscroll with seperate sides for each WG?

If so, i'd ditch it and get one more setup for your car, or run a twinscroll with dual WG :)

No such thing as a front mount manifold. You mean Top mount? If so its likely divided, and if thats the case you can't run 1 wastegate, you HAVE to run 2.

like i said earlier, its setup for a twinscroll, u'll run both. that'd be considered a form of a sidemount honestly :)

I know how it sits the turbo :) just saying if u are talking about it in the future, say sidemount with a forward facing turbo, and more ppl will know what your speaking of!

And yup, 2 WG ftw!

We call it a front mount, forward facing, etc...

Turbo sits right next to the front mount intercooler...

You need 2 44mm gates to do it right...who did you get that manifold from?? Its def an older one..

I think forward facing would be the most correct form :)

Looks like a decent manifold :)
