Woo Hoo Dump Pipe Finially Arrived

meggala,  

when I tried to turn my boost down all the way (I turned the bleed valve until it was shut), I went for a drive and the car was terrible, as if if had no power at all, boost was really low (shouldn't it just go to 0.5bar?)

dunno what to do?

It still runs ok (quicker than standard) on 10psi, but my point is that it lost some power when I put the dump on. I might as well put my standard cast dump pipe on for a power increase? :(  

But seriously,  if I get it on a dyno and it shows that it has timing and fuel probs, is there anything that can be done to iron it out before I get an SAFC?

man man man, get your car on the dyno at ice on saturday and get everything checked out!

If u have lost power by putting on your dump then your car must be irish not japanese!

turned boost back down to normal (got rid of bleed valve) and it runs smooth as, I've come to the conclusion that:

1. before dump I had it at 11psi and it was pretty smooth b/c it wasn't getting too much air so A/F ratios weren't too bad

2. After putting dump in, it's letting so much more air flow through that combined with boost the stock ecu sh*ts itself and give me massive flat spots.

In other words I will wait before I get my SAFC before I put my bleed valve back in.

I need help with one thing though!!!!!

After installing the dump, I've noticed that I get really big spikes, even with the stock boost set up back together. It spikes around 3psi which I was never getting when I didn't have the dump - Can Anyone Help Explain this?

I though it might be the type of dump I got b/c it has 2 seperate pipes and the wastegate pipe is only 1 1/4 inch diameter. Don't know if it flows enough for the wastegate, meaning that the turbo can't bypass all the pressure when at high revs and it spikes.  

Is it something else.

Help appreciated.

Thanks guys (sorry 4 such a long one!)

The wastegate pipe aint 2 small, look at franks hks dump, its the same size!

black r33 wind your boost down a bit and see if it help wind it down to 8 psi or so more boost doesn't nessacarliy maen more power then get the s-afc tuned.

franks here in melbourne we have had some very good results with the s-afc tuning 15 20 rwkw iis gain quite often.

exstatic doesn't need to jsut ify the gain cause most of us were there when he got the gains and saw them with our own eyes

franks?Where need a place asap!Also meggala do u no u have never answerd any of my questions to u ?

Arrgh if only i knew exactly what and where to get for my exhaust

I'm after a Front pipe + Dump pipe

3 of my local exhaust places know jack squat and i've just emailed UAS hoping for a half-decent reply but know it will cost the earth through them.

Benm, i just ordered a dump from JMS (japanese motorsport) in Adelaide and am waiting for it to arrive. They have stainless dump and front pipes for a reasonable price. I'll post some pics when it arrives and can let you know what the quality is like.

    • I have an Elite 2500, honestly most of this has been a lot of smaller tasks chasing little details and a whole lot of life getting in the way of bigger projects. I don't mind too much looking at a spectrograph vs having audio knock ears. 
    • Nah nah nah nah. Don't do it. It's not all about the full throttle power delivery. The main "street fun" and drivability gains from smaller rear (in this case) is how you will have boost available from a low rpm when yo just roll onto the throttle. Think jinking in and out of traffic, coming out of roundabouts, etc etc, where you just want to roll onto the throttle a little and have the spooly noise from ~2000rpm and a swell of torque. More of what you've already achieved by going to 2.5. And then, towards the tail end of 2025 you can pull the turbo 4 out and put in a V8 like we originally suggested. :P
    • Cheers for the info mate, I'm old too, 60 years old next May, so a more linear delivery of the 0.86 would be better as baking tyres and snapping heads isn't on the cards for me or the car I assume a more linear power delivery would be better for engine and drivetrain reliability as well, IRT the torque load at lower RPM???, as well as lower EGT's???, if my understanding of that is correct, have I got that right??? I've only got a really basic understanding of turbo sizing and all there characteristics  Cheers for the useful information 
    • What kind of power delivery are you after? If it's nice and linear, the 0.86 would be better. If you're after bake tyres and head snaps on boost the 0.64 would be fun. I'm boring and old, so linear power is preferred. Lately I've been watching videos on Z06 Corvettes and super charged Mustangs....
