Another crazy idea
 

Would it be possible to get a throttle body, say at least a 2.5" one, weld up some bracketry, get a vacuum diaphram and make a boost actuated exhaust cutout? Basically the same thing as what ATP Turbo makes? 8) :o

Might work but you could also just use boost switch that activates an electric cut out to open at a certain psi

Better yet, a vtec actuated exhaust cutout for all of the cock loving ricers out there :3

Re: Another crazy idea
 

Or just buy an electric cutout on ebay for $50-$150+ and flip the ------- switch when you want your cutout opened. :y

i think the throttle body would work fine. If you were smooth you could make it all mechanical.

Re: Another crazy idea
 

It's just making sure the throttle body can cope with the exhaust heat, you'd need to still have a few feet of pipe off the turbo.

I've thought about doing it, but if you design the exhaust right you don't really need it to keep the noise down.

this is a waste of your life

Re: Another crazy idea
 

would you want an exhaust cutout to make overall power? opening it beforehand would allow the turbo to spool quicker instead of opening while it is spooled up. yes, it may work, and yes you will make power, but is it worth the effort?
