Hey guys,

Can an internally gated twin turbo GTR have a split dump pipe where the wastegate opens and vents the excess exhaust gas to the atmosphere?

Has anyone done it? Info?

How would it perform compared to it being plumbed back into the exhaust?

Cheers

yes you can, it's been done plenty of time before... why on earth would you want to? for the fully sick wickid hecktic screamer sound?

your not going to gain much in the way of hp, it's dangerous and it's completly illegal.

There is a thread on here somewhere where the wastegate pipes on split dumps were cut to make screamers. But yeh, sik ulehs only need apply for that mod....and track only.

Screamers with internal gates sound like Arse!!

actually after having an ext gate screamer ive decided all screamers sound like arse.

Haha fair enough.

Was more interested to see if there would be any gains to be had as I know there is with external wastegates and screamer pipes.

No gains to be had, unless the cat back or dump pipe is a rectrictive pos, even with extrenal gates

Just get under the car an unbolt the exhaust at the cat, throw rest of the system away and a attach pipe that exits under the passenger side door , its the only way to roll.. :P

Ok thanks, i'll let you know how I go with that.

haha. Its going to be waaaaaaaaaaaayyy too loud if you do that.

Have you ever heard a kakimoto Full Mega N1 on song? I get asked all the time if I have screamer pipes. Its pretty tame up until the gates open... but oh my what a note :P

    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
    • Factory LSD is supposedly a 2 way with a very conservative cam. If you've already tried adding friction modifier to the diff oil and it still locks up too much for your liking you might want to adjust the ramp rate on the cam to be more like OEM instead of reducing initial torque even further. People claim the 8 kgf-m disc kit for the OEM LSD is still very streetable but I've never been able to compare everything side by side on my own.
    • Oh man, at least it sounds they've accepted they stuffed up and not put it back on you...could see some confusion if they asked if it had a hardtop or not, and you've answered truthfully but maybe not answering their real question which is what roof did it have from the factory! Glad your keeping it N/A 2.5
    • Nah, I much prefer colour matched Talking about colour matching stuff, the new/used boot lid turned up, all painted up perfectly......aaaannnndddd, it's for a power retractable hard top, not a soft top.....LOL They are now sending a boot to fit a soft top.....,  whilst frustrating, life is like that sometimes, sometimes you just need to dodge, duck, dip, dive and, ummm, dodge.
