Down Pipes?

[illusioneclipse]

Yo man go w/ the STILLEN dp. it fits like a glove and have a nice tone to it and it also goes w/ ur n1 exhaust. I have a STILLEN downpipe and i love it. ITs also cheap too. i paid 180 for it.

DP wont affect sound, aside from its size (theyre all 2.5, or 3", and rarely the BR 3.5) That looks like a decent piece though.

what is boost creep? and would replacing my o2 housing completly take care of the boost creep problem? and i like my shit to be loud, so i would like to run an external dump on my waste gate, what would i have to do besides buy a o2 that does this??? thanks

I cant get the www.racingknowledge.org website to work here at work, but I believe there is a sticky about WGs and boost controllers that may also explain creep. The very short version is that its when your WG cant bypass enough exhaust around the turbine wheel to accurately control bost. The result is it will hold set boost until some rpm where it will start to rise on its own and continue doing so until you let off. As an example, my 14b with 2.5" BR turbo back (test pipe) would hold 18 psi to about 5500 rm, then it would rise to 22 psi by 7k.

IF you want to dump your internal to atmosphere, the appropriate O2 hosuing (or mods to your current one) is all you need. But I'll warn you that it sounds like complete shit. The smaller the gate is, the crappier it sounds. I hated it. I love my external gate's sound though. But the cops dont, thats for sure.

lol, yea cops arent a real fan of loud. i love my vehicles to be load but they must sound good to. so you advise against dumping the waste gate of a t-25/14b into the atmosphere?

[kjewer1]

I do advise against, only because it sounds like absolute ass. And it did nothing for my boost creep either, so it doesnthave much function, even if it lacks form.

what is the performance difference between a regular aftermarket dp and a o2 elminator dp??????? is there any problems after installing the O2 eliminator dp? and where did you get yours fourg63?

[FourG63 97GST]

mine was custom made

only problem I have with MINE is that i have to use stock(dealership) or small oil filters, since big ones dont clear the downpipe

the difference between a regular downpipe and O2 elimininator, is that eliminator gets rid of the stock housing and flows more

http://www.rnrracing.com/ sells these also

you dont want an external dump on a T25, you'll lose alot of top end power

Well everyone has a lout exhaust somewhere or another. Just think of 3 inch exhaust turbo back with no sound. Get a loud bov(vented) and I/C pipes. sounds like a damn f16 taking off everytime. This is whats keeping me from selling my car. Everyone always asks how much boost you runnning, whats that noise etc. I just love it. But now that I got the paint and body done. Everyone asks what kind of car is that?

i already have a atmospheric dump BOV (Blitz), i am building my exhaust as we speak, i am ordering my DP tomarrow, i still need to get rid of my POS IC piping and get somthing that isn't flat, but all in time. on the IC topic has anyone had any experience with the home made upper IC pipe that VFAQ shows you how to build??? thanks
