But yes, a turbo with external wastegate would be nice. Along with the 3" outlet on the turbo with 'V' band elbow ! GT3071 it is then ! ;-)

This my down pipe.


I think running a screamer pipe should and is probably illegal, And in my opinion is totally antisocial :roll: :doh: .

That's the one and I totally agree.

It would also get very tiring to listen to, in a very short time I'd imagine.

One big fault with the screamer pipe is the fumes will come in the car through the fresh air vents!
Apart from that i like em!

Thats why the modern choice of the charvers is to have it externally venting through the front wing, just like a front exit exhaust. ;)

Just to throw a spanner in the works, had a screamer pipe on my car 7 yrs ago. It worked fine, no fumes ever came in the car and it was never that noisy. Not sure what I will be going with when it goes back together. Will no doubt get two pipes made up so I can alternate it depending on which works best.

I vented mine back into exhaust the though of getting pulled by the plod was just too much bullshit i could be arsed with.

I remember racing a scooby a couple of years ago with a screamer and it sounded bloody horrible as he sped past me and was so loud it hurt my ears very horrid , i wasnt in the R tho i was in the old mans scooby giving it a good run for him :lol:
