Hey guys,

Figuring that my stock RB20 dump bolted on to the back of my RB25 turbo with a 3" exhuast all the way wasnt fllowing to its potential, I went in search for a new setup.

With inspiration from CES, I wanted to acheive something like this:

But I didnt agree much with the price tag :confused:

So anyways I grabbed my self a 3" screamer pipe, and asked an exhuast shop to fabbricate a pipe and join it all up in a similar fashion.

The exhaust shop didnt however tap in on the same length or the same angle, what I have now looks a bit like my attachment. (see below)

attachment.php?attachmentid=23667

(BTW: I'm not all that artistic, so no bagging please :uhh: hehe )

My question is ; The setup how it is now, the wastegate pipe comming directly down, will this be still creating turbulance anyway? What do you guys think?

BTW, I wasnt happy with the shop in Victoria, very unprofessional, and came across that they really didnt know what they were doing, and seemed bored :spew:

If its as you illustrate then I would think it was a waste of money as its probably worse than before.

Although the gases probably have lost a bit of heat and velocity any input of extra gasses at right angles at WOT is NOT good.

Much better to have it going in on a steep angle with a slight bit of pipe inside so the passing gasses actualy help suck the WG gas into the stream.

Anyway that's my 2 cents worth

    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
