Dump Pipes

[SKYrine_Dan]

Hi,

Yes i have read the threads!

What i want to know is what dump pipes you guys are running in your skylines?

Im currently looking at getting a 3in split dump but not sure whether to buy off ebay or get one made?

Does anyone no if the NPOWER ones on ebay are ok?

Cheers guys and gals

im running at 2 in 1 dump/front. wish i had bought a split dump in the first place as from what i read its better. mine was bought bout 2 yrs ago from batmbl and his prices are still relatively cheap. I dont know why you would need to go custom unless you have aftermarket turbo - or if the a/m turbo didnt have dump included.

I got a bell mouth (not split system) turbo to cat dump pipe, 3inch stainless steel, for $220 from JustJap on ebay. Top quality for the price I guess, and definately a power gain

Nozila, I know what you mean about rather buying a split pipe to start with, guess it comes down to finances at the time tho I figured myself $200ish was more than adequate, rather then twice that for a split system. Maybe one day down the track.......................

Hmmmm - anyone want a 3inch bellmouth stainless steel turbo to cat pipe? only 4000kms old !

I bought one from AM PERFORMANCE, it a S/S split front/dump pipe

all in one. High quality, great piece of work, excellent off boost drivability. He even came round and gave me a hand to install it.

I bought a split front/dump pipe from batmbl and it is excellent! Have had it on for 6+ months and is still like new.

GOT MINE DONE AT D & T

SPLIT DUMP TO JUST BEFORE THE CAT (CUSTOM) WITH NEW METAL RACING CAT.

SPOOLS UP ABOUT 500 RPM QUICKER AND YOU CAN FEEL THE INCREASED POWER

if you go custom, dont bother going stainless steel cause mild steel would just do the job just as good at a fraction of the cost - material wise that is. my dump/front (mild steel) has been on for years and its still in as new condition, same goes for my cat back exhaust (mild steel) in same condition i bought it in - over 4 yrs now not to mention how long its been used prior to me having it. just a thought.

I've got a CES split dump - more pricey than other split dumps out there, but the quality really is fantastic.

Haven't used a standard dump so I can't compare the two, but the improvement the dump made when it was installed was great! Great guy to deal with over the phone too - helpful and prepared to spend some time on the phone talking/explaining about the product.

I had them do my exhaust system.

Back then they swore black and blue that the split dumps don't increase power or spool, they said it was a load of crap. I think it was more the case they hadn't done one before.

Ahh well now these gt35r internal gates are out I will be grabbing a new dump soon anyway.

Cheers for all your replies guys, now im thinking of just goin mild steel instead of stainless.

Split dump and front pipe sounds the best!

Thanks

good choice, stainless aint worth the money. no one is going to squat under your car and go omfg, bling bling he has stainless pipes - or somethng to that effect. engine bay, on the other hand, is understanable.

Stainless is worth it if u keep the car a long time. Mild steel is more prone to rust, but most ppl dont keep their cars long enough to see these things....
