Screamer Pipe vs Split Dump Pipe

[Angry]

been thinkin about getting a screamer pipe ..for the hell of it ..and put it on while i get the intercooler fitted ...although what daunts me is what will be the results ......the cars fairly loud now ..does get a bit of attention as it is .... but i just wanna replace the standard dump pipe to some more "beefer"

i've neva heard a screamer pipe on a car b4 ... well maybe ..i'm not sure what i'm listenin for

are there any down falls to it .....any like things to be aware of ..ie the screamer pipe making any flames or somthing?

but on the same token ..do u gain about the same power gains to a split setup? just not venting it to atmosphere ..

anyone have either one ... anycar ..doesnt matter . just wanna see what ppl have found with em ...... and if one or the other is worth buying over the other .....

thanks for your time.

pfftt

you need to hear my mates 33 .. stock turbo .. sounds like a angry external atmo gate when on noise.

i heard a screamer on a mates 180sx SR20 and it sounds rather ugly, leaks at idle so sounds abit wierd and once getting up it, it is amazing the noise that is produced, when racing him i cant even hear my own car. Seems to produce abit more top end, but i cant see there being any advantages over a split dump setup

[JH32]

they sound tough

[tomj]

when done properly

i've got one on mine, its flaged so i can plumb it in if i want to.

If you want, ill take ya for a quick burn in my car so you can hear it???

Mines pretty loud as its coming of a big Ext Gate and has a pretty big pipe to boot.

I must admit, they are farking angry as shit when it comes on boost.

Real feral growl.

But after getting it plumbed back in today, i'd almost be tempted to leave it.

Screamer is good... but once you make it quiet, and with a big turbz, all you can hear is this crazy areoplane kinda noise when the turb is on song. And the car truely sounds faster i reckon

But depends on my mood i guess.

a properly set-up screamer shouldnt leak at idel at all if its done properly

while i think of it, evertime i give it a hard drive i get some funny smells

just as the red-hot air is hitting the underside.

Not damage being done though from my checking, but the smell is going slowly so it must be burning some shit off

yea ash would be sweet to actually hear one "first ear" ..... as i'm still weighting up my options for turbo ..either t04e wastegated or internal... i really just dont know ..i know there loud .. as everyone has said ..... but i'm used to hearing 370ci plus sprintcars at 15feet away rifle around a 1/4 mile dirt track .. more noise doesnt hurt .. much ..unless u over 128db ..(aka threshold of pain)

only concern is getting reamed by the jacks on a nite out somewhere minding my own burnouts .. i mean business.... ..but it happens as they say..

screamer means that you cant hit boost around other cars/people without everyone knowing for about a 2km radius. it is a bit of fun, but i was always planning on plumbing mine back to the exhaust.

oh and i dont think it would be that far away from the pain threshold

[R31Nismoid]

yeah, its ear piercing thats for sure.

if i got beside someone, the echo off thier car is so bllody loud if i have my window down.

imagine them on the close side of it

[abflug]

got one hanging off a t88 and there is no sweeter sound

[rayin]

i was jus wondering guys.. have you guys ever heard the screamer pipe on a WRX?? does it sound any where like the rb and sr engine sounds like??

[rayin]

is it possible to get a screamer on a wrx?? i have myself one on my skyline but my brother wants one on his wrx.. just seeking some help if you guys have seen a screamer on a wrx b4? one more questions.. you guys know what is required to be able to get a screamer ?? you guys know any good cheap places in melb to get a screamer pipe done??

thanks heaps!!

[Trust33]

Nothing is required to put a screamer pipe on.All it needs to have is the same flange pattern at both the turbine and exhaust joins and and match in the diameter and length obviously.

[rayin]

just wondering would a WRX be able to get a screamer pipe??

[mokompri]

yes any car with a turbo can ! :headspin:

[rayin]

oh sweet thanks heaps man.. would every turbo car with a screamer pipe sound the same ?? or different? have any of yous heard a wrx with a screamer pipe? does it sound anything like a rb engine??

[mokompri]

no they will sound different, although its so loud you might not be able to tell the difference...

but generally speaking the RB will sound very different, a 6 cylinder car will always sound very different to a 4 cylinder one
