New Turbo mod...
Whenever the wastegate opens, it dumps any extra exhaust to keep boost at whatever level is set by the boost controller. It doesn't sound bad, but it is loud. Here is the best pic I have of it (it dumps well below the rubber steering boot): Attachment 58309 So, I bought a simple muffler and had a guy at work weld it on the end of the dump pipe: Attachment 58310 Attachment 58311 Attachment 58312 Now it is totally quiet when the wastegate opens... simple and only cost me $7. This is different than the Blow off Valve... that still dumps all the extra boost out of the intake side when I shift. :metal: |
that's cool, more stealthiness

Inside that housing is a tube about the same size diameter as the dump pipe with a bunch of bigger holes, then the outside of what you see has all those little holes. That's it... all it does is break up the sound waves. The sound it made wasn't popping or swooshing. When the wastegate opens, it dumps exhaust right after the headers but before the turbo. If there was popping, it would happen when you get off the gas, but that dump is closed then. So, you could DEFINITELY tell when the wastegate opened! |

Man, if we knew this was going to be a big hit, we should've done a POTR GB so everyone gets it at the same time.

Matt nice car bro :) how much for all the chrome engine covers
For the record, that is NOT my car! I figured since I saw a few posts about too much bling, I would post that up. I am not sure, I think on the website I linked it was under the 7-piece chrome kit almost 500 smackers. Way too much bling, tacky IMO. |
I have a question.... If I upgraded to 39lbs injectors and the gt500 dual fuel pump set up, would I have to get retuned or would the computer adjust? these mods might not have any gain with my set up but would give me peace of mind and support future mods. What do you guys think?
