You will get better throttle response either way. And with the stock turbo i doubt you would be able to tell the difference between the two.

I had a split dump pipe on my car ages ago and i thought it was a great little upgrade.

correct me if i'm wrong, but split pipes are meant to work better (in theory) due to the turbulent air coming out of the turbo.. by splitting the wastegated exhaust down a separate pipe and re-joining the main flow at a later point where the turbo's air is less turbulent, it allows better flow for the wastegated gasses. This should allow for better flow.

however if the wastegate side of the split dump isn't large enough it could cause over boost (as Pal is experiencing) ..

ive got the first one....fitted up pretty easy, definetly increased resonse and also a slight increase in psi (1-2psi).

bolted up nicely, just one bolt was abit hard to get to, but i just cut my open ended spanner in half so i can get in there and tighten it up

overall good product

chuck on a 3.5" hi flow cat while ur at it

:D

15psi on a stock turbo? It wont last long if you are

Either way, any of the products on offer from the traders will do.

Your not running a 300rwkw+ setup, so you don't need to spend up on custom, off the shelf is fine

There was a test i read once on large dump pipes versus split ones and the results were a higher low-mid torque increase using the HKS split dump pipe.

Top end power on the HKS was higher too but only marginally. CES was tested as the best as the split has the longest distance from the gate but its also probably the most pricey.

For me; im going tomei as i believe the differences would be so small, not really noticible.

i got the just jap bell mouth and the xforce high flow cat, now running 10-11psi, vast improvement....

when i got my car dyno'd the other week it got 159.5rwkw with just exhaust/ front/dump and high flow cat running stock boost.... the stock r33's and r34's were getting 125-135rwkw, so quite a bit of power increase over stock

and 15psi on your stock turbo??????? you must want an excuse to high flow yours lol...

and unless your planning to get over 250rwkw i wouldnt bother choosing between the split or bellmouth pipes, even then you wouldn't really feel much of a difference..... a dyno machine will see it but i doubt you'll feel it...

hey guys im not running a stock turbo.

ive got a GT30r 500hp roller, this is why im asking the difference.

im going for 300kw....eventually

i had it at 248rwkw but the injectors were maxxd out so im running at 221rwkw now....

    • Unless things that you want to do include reference to time. Simple Boolean logic is only good for digital inputs or analogues that have been thresholded into digitals. But unless you also have a timer function available (which would more ideally be located inside the program, rather than being forced to implement a timer outside the ECU and bring it in as a seperate digital for every time delay you want to implement), then you can't do some of the things that you might want to do. My PLC ladder logics are obviously littered with program blocks, because that's easier than building it all in ladder gates, but the most frequent of those program blocks is a simple timer, because you actually can't otherwise do that in ladder at all.
    • Log voltage. I'm suspecting the alternator. Or even maybe a bad earth somewhere. ie, seeing as it is rev dependent, I am thinking it is alternator dependent.
    • Yeah so N1 and any other larger than factory pump are pretty famous for pumping the sump dry...obviously we don't often get to spend 20 or 30 seconds at high rpm/full noise on the road so I'd still be suspicious that is what is happening here.
    • You are also getting pressure dips on gear shifts. They're just not dipping as far, but they're dipping quite below the amount of oil pressure you should be seeing, for how much RPM drops.   It quite little could be the oil pressure relief valve is starting to stick open a little/is slow to close.
    • Can you log battery voltage, and TPS, and put all four of those into a single image (even as split graphs)?   The oil pressure drops aren't following RPM as such. I'm intrigued if you may have a ground loop between different sensors. With the engine not running, log your sensors and for example cycle the throttle pedal. See if any sensor values flutter or move about. This won't be a perfect test either as the ECU won't be cycling all of its actuators like it would be while running. What EMTRON do you have? Do you have a link to the wiring guide for that ECU?
