? About wategate dump tube?
 

I've noticed that most if not all people running an external wastegate have their dump tube connect to their exhaust somewhere under or between the engine and firewall. Any reason why? Couldn't you just connect the dump tube let's say 1 ft. after the exhaust flange from the turbo?

Re: ? About wategate dump tube?
 

alot of people state that turbulence or some ---- (from the sudden purge of exhaust gases from the wastegate) will disturb the flow of the exhaust and hinder performance.they say that routing the tube farther back into the down pipe/exhaust will remedy this. some do it, but others just dump it. ;)

"Just dump it" It's been said that by "dumping it" it's loud, not what i want, but thanks for the input! ;D

If your going to coonect it back into the downpipe, make it ATLEAST 12" downstream form the turbo, optimal is 18"

And make it a nice gradual flow in, no 90* bullshit

Noticed your fairly local to me in the GTA to

Why do you care about noise when the dump is open? It is only making noise when youre boosting, and it sounds sick

A lot more power, and personally, a better noise and less fabrication with an open dumptube

Re: ? About wategate dump tube?
 

I have read on this forum, not to long ago, depending on you're setup, some sound good, others sound like total ----. I guess i could fabricate my dump tube to eventually connect with the rest of the exhaust pending on how loud or shitty it sounds.

its all about horsepower man, you wana quiet turbo ride, go by a stock turbo car. i have open dump in my car, it screams when it opens up.

Re: ? About wategate dump tube?
 

you can connect it wherever you want to the down pipe

Re: ? About wategate dump tube?
 

if you want to run open dump tube and and still remain quiet, you could try putting a resonator or small muffler on it.( that would be gay)

personally i like the sound of a short open dumptube.

Re: ? About wategate dump tube?
 

the only time your gonna hear the exhaust from the dump-tube is when you got it wide open throttle.. other than that your not gonna hear it.

If you have a complaining girlfriend, that complain as soon as you turn the ignition key, you could mount the dump tube trough the passenger side dashboard, first complain, WTF WOT, hairs flying, high pitched screams, full exhaust blasts, between gears, while she struggle to hold on her seat... Good times ;D

Otherwise further as stated above, but I personally like the open air, I mean under the car !

About the dumptubes not sounding good or sounding great

Obviously its about personal preference and there all giving off relatively the same note on our cars

Some people say hondas sound like ---- revving so high and high pitched, some people love it

The things your reading is all preference

Plus your canadian, go big or go home

Re: ? About wategate dump tube?
 

just make a open dump coming out the side of the front bumper
my next project (im hoping to see flames at night)

just dump it staight down to the ground

DUMP IT

dump it right into the turbo intake...egr yo

I hope ur joking lol

open dump is gonna scream when your turbo kicks in

and when we say scream we mean it
the noise is crazy

meh,dump it...

dump it throw the hood.

Not gonna lie, I LOL'd

Route it back to the exhaust mani so that it improves spool time.

im not going to lie i thought you were serious for a second

Everyone makes that mistake sometimes
