heckler Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 got a single turbo with external waste gate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooquicktostop Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I have a screamer pipe set up on my car, they are very loud on boost it has to be said and they can make some interesting marks on the floor of a rolling road They dont add any power over a pipe that just runs into the exhaust I would not have thought ?

lockys96 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 could be done, but your better off fitting one of those gismo things attached to the gear change, ttttsssscccchhhhhhhhhhh oh i forgot that was the dump valve one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 They dont add any power over a pipe that just runs into the exhaust I would not have thought ? Correct they don't add power, just a lot of noise, too much noise really for the street as it can attract a lot of unwanted attention from the law if you're not careful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 ive got one on my starlet and i love it, only a little turbo but it sounds offensive when it comes on boost. That wasnt from an external wastegate, so it always leaked exhaust gasses, but i got used to that. If i go single on my Supra then i'll definately be letting it scream!

dangerous brain Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Interestingly enough my car is really drony inside right up until the waste gate opens and sends the exhaust gas out the screamer pipe outside, then it all goes quiet inside. Different matter outside though. Very quiet externally right up until the waste gate open then it sounds like a damn jet engine going past. To be fair the federally types might be attracted more by the wanton speeding the vehicle is doing on boost more than any noise its making as it does it.

lockys96 Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 (edited) Short answer - no i had one on my stock glanza turbo, it was rewelded into the downpipe for sva at the time. although i take it the housing is different. believe its night pager http://night-pager.com/parts/engineroom/page_scream.html Edited May 21, 2008 by lockys96 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopite Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Too right i want mine to scream too, can you fit an external waste gate to the stock turbos, I know bugger all about turbos Dale Bowman had a set of hybrids which had an external wastegate sort of set up, can't remember who did them originally but he sold them when he went single. No idea what happened to them or why they were done like that in the first place... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edge Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 I remember a link from on here to the supraforums i believe of a guy who made a custom manifold for the stock TT system which would allow an external waste gate. Maybe a search will bring it up but alot of hassle imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim_1979 Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Can't you weld the wastegates shut and put one onto the manifold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
