hey guys im a noob at this so please excuse me if its already been discussed. searched and couldnt find an answer.

atm my R33 has a 3" cat back exhaust and im guessing into a high flow muffler.

now i want to finish of the exhaust system so obviously i need a bigger dump pipe and a highflow metal cat.

now my question is if i get a 3" dump pipe into a 3" high flow cat would that be good or would it be to much of a free flow??? the car is running stock boost, stock BOV, Stock cooler and panel filter in stock box so the exhaust is the only performance mod done so far.

also the dump pipe would bold straight onto the turbo im guessing???

also coz of the full exhaust done would the stock boost go up a tad or will it still remain at 7psi??? iv been told coz its more free flow now my boost will be raised to prob 8psi or so. is this correct???

im still in the learning process of how it all works so please excuse the noodness :blink:

thanks

Ash

A 3" hi flow cat and 3" dump/front pipe is all you need to finish the exhaust off.

If you just get the dump pipe the front pipe will still be restricting the flow. So what you would ideally be looking for is a 3" dump/front pipe.

Yes the dump will bolt straight onto the stock turbo.

You will see greater power gains with the exhaust system finished off, and will get more boost yes. 8-9psi

      See my post here If you put the Haltech in, you won't have to worry about any of that. And, in case you're worrying about my lack of credentials in doing your exact swap, I put a Neo in an R32. There has never been a stock boost solenoid near my car and the Neo's ECU has never cared. Nor should it, because it is electronically impossible for it to care.

      That's 100% wrong. Did you wire in the boost sensor? If you did not, then that is 101% your answer. Neo ECUs do suck a bit.

      R34 RB20DE NEO + T ONLY

      Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.

      interesting. ive read and heard otherwise over the past year. ive been doing this +t conversion on a rb20 neo using all oem rb25det neo parts including the ECU, and im having engine cut out issues when I hit around 5 psi of boost. Everywhere/everyone ive asked has told me its because I never wired in a boost solenoid/actuator to the ecu, so the ecu isn't getting the right signal once it hits 5 psi of boost, causing the engine to get shut off.
