I think it's in corkey bell's book that it needs to be 16" away from the turbocharger for the WG to merge back in.

that looks like pimp ----. i do have 2 concerns abuot it though. one, it looks like you dont have gaskets on the flanges. if you fabbed it w/o gaskets then when you put gaskets on it will throw off your alignment. hopefully they are there and i just cant see them.

my 2nd concern is that expansion with cause cracking. maybe with a longer dump tube things could flex a little more. none the less your fabrication skills are **** and i am glad to finally see someone routing their dump tube back into the exhaust.

I dont see a problem with the dump placement. I mean, look at an internally gated turbo.

It doesn't help him at all just to tell him his work looks ****. Its clear he didn't understand that dumping so early would effect power in a negative fashion. Now next time he can keep it in mind and try to make his design more efficient. I don't understand why its bad to constantly try to improve and you will never do that if you never learn from your mistakes.

thats true, but I'm sure its also annoying when you have 10 tunar bois on the internet who aren't doing anything nitpicking your work constnatly about things that don't make that much of a difference on a street car. Yes, it may not be "optimal" but it doesn't matter that much.

exactly my point earlier... this setup probably won't see more than 8-10psi so i don't imagine it will have a significant enough impact to cause a drastic loss. had it been a full-on drag engine then the whole thing would have been different from manifold to downpipe to dumptube. :P
