Funny that the whole drivetrain loss has been proven with back to back results on 400awkw+ :ninja:

I don't think you've searched and read them yet have you?

I wouldn't call you an expert at all, far from it.

well it hasnt been proven :D

its actually been proven by the guys who invented measuring units.. u know.. those guys called ENGINEERS??

and uve been proven wrong as well by many other forum users so dont bother arguing dude..

the day a drive train has minimal losses, will be the day that fuel usage drops to like 2lt/100 in a 300kw car

but as it stands by today, the loss is about 30% and i wont bother gettin into it with u, because uve already been proven

wrong by everyone else on this forum :ninja:

The exhaust gasket between the dump/turbo was reused.

Im running standard boost 10psi and always have. Just full exhaust and smic thats it.

Cheers all for the comments, ill replace both gaskets on the front/dump and see if that reduces the sound.

Thanks :laugh:

after you do that please let us know whether it still makes the sound, double check it too just to make sure it's not leaking, so we know if there really was a leak or not for reference..

i guess everyone who's posted here are just trying to help out, everyone's got different thoughts from their own experience, hence different approach and different comments..

everyone should be entitled to have their own say, lets just read it carefully to make sure there's no misunderstanding, and respect it, if you do think otherwise, just say what you think but i dont think there's a need to aim your fire at anyone if their opinion's different to yours.

It's fine.

Yes of course you will loose low end response. You've got a much bigger surface area on your new pipe, so it will radiate heat alot quicker than the stock unit, reducing exhaust velocity and therefore torque. However as revs increase, the extra flow outweighs this, and you begin to make more torque.

The noise is probably normal. Turbos make sounds like that. :D

It will be a leak of some sort.I had this exact same dump pipe on my car(this exact one in question) i had no weird noises at all.The only noise that was different was i could now hear the turbo spool through the thinner wall of the dump compared to the thicker stock one.

EDIT: Maybe this weird noise you hear is the sound of the turbo spooling??? Just louder now that you have the dump pipe in.

well, I bet its the gaskets between the turbo and manifold.

Nismoid is right, the head to manifold gasket makes a tractor sound.

The Manifold to turbo gaskets make the high pitched sound. How do I know? Because mine is doing it, my studs are stretching and I need to keep tightening them.

There is even a little brown spot where its leaking. It sounds like a kettle, or like how the redneck bushman put 2 gunm leaves together and blow through them and make that stupid sound.

Thats what happens when the gaskets are loose - they make that squeal.

I'm in the process of removing the turbo and changing mine too.

Bumblebee, you may say you have done 1000's of cars, which I doubt you've done 1000's of Turbo charged Skylines, but do you hae one that has had a turbo upgrade, makes some power, and is actually doing it all the time to know what you're talking about?

I doubt it.

I hope you are not mistaking this noise for the louder turbo spool noise as a result of fitting this dump pipe. :D

sound doesnt worry me, i was more concerned about the less response in the lower rev range, but im used to it now hehe

      [HOW-TO] Winter Steam-Clean & Odour Removal in 30 min

      By The Bogan 路 Posted

      Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 馃ぃ, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up

      Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.

      [HOW-TO] Winter Steam-Clean & Odour Removal in 30 min

      We have one that holds 2.8L of water. On floor carpet that hasn't been touched in 2 or 3 years, will take a minimum of 2 fills of the tank to do a bedroom, and that's going AROUND the bed.   In the cruiser, I used an ENTIRE 2.8L tank, just on the front passenger footwell. But it had some fungus growing, and had been full of mud from being used as a 4WD for many years. I can do that floor again, and it will still pull mud out. However, the water now only looks dirty, not pitch black and leaving full sludge in the bottom of the tank it sucks back into. Oh, and, this is about a $1500 unit.

      This is mine, works a treat for the cars, suction is good, I use the Bissell clean and protect stuff I have found giving it a good spray and light scrub with the soft brush on the head of the nossle for carpet, and a rub with a microfibre for cloth seats and cloth door trims, prior to another quick spray before vacuuming it up works the best @GTSBoy You would surprised on what it gets out of carpet and seats that actually "look" clean, I recommend that you test drive yours when you have a little time to kill, then post pics of the muddy looking water that I believe you will find

      I think even the "commercial" capacity ones that you would hire from supermarkets etc wouldn't have the capacity to do all that much in one go. I will go through half a dozen tanks of solution and dumps/rinses of the waste tank for one little 2 seat sofa. Or similar for one 6 footish rug. That's the price you pay for something small that only takes up a bit of cupboard space, instead of something that takes up the entire laundry cupboard or half the shed.
