Im sure there is a thread on this but im not having any luck finding it. But im looking for pics of downpipes. Going straight back, out the side in front of the front tire, or out the hood. Im trying to get ideas for a downpipe. Any pics or links would be much appreciated. Thanks

my old budget *** sohc turbo






I did it and loved it, will be doing a bumper dump on my ls-t hatch Im working on right now, its actually really quite compared to open down pipe under the car, alot less resonation and less fumes in the cab.

WhiteVX

do you have any pics of the downpipe itself? Thanks

K7-1Ktrevor

I don't. I will take some when I build my down pipe for my hatch either today or tomorrow.

I did a bumper dump on my setup aswell but no pics as the cars apart right now, I looks sick as heck witht e 3" Dp and 1.5" w/g dump coming out of your bumper

And like he said, its alot more quiet inside the car rolling down the highway

Thanks for the pic. I got an open dp under the car now. But i am very interested in an exit out the front bumper. Just trying to do a little research first.

Great thread I wanna hear some sound clips. Is it daily driveable?

K7-1Ktrevor

just as daily drivable as any other open down pipe. I think its quieter, at least inside the car.

Vagitarian

daily driveable?? There are thousdans of cars out there running open d/p, where you route the exhaust doesnt change that

My g/f says I dont smell like exhaust anymore either after a good run in the mountain lol

K7-1Ktrevor

id love to see pics of your d.p. and dump tube setup

i was thinking about doing an open d/p too...are the gains really worth it?

K7-1Ktrevor

ya, as long as you retune, my sohc turbo went from 197whp with full 2.25" exhaust to 240 with 2.5" open d.p.

you had a very restrictive exhaust though so you cannot base gains off of that.

K7-1Ktrevor

I did, but it was a night and day difference. also open d.p. is a good way to save money from buying a full 3" exhaust, I know you can get some cheap exhaust, but when building a car everything adds up, especially with the economy how it is :/

slowboy90

oh im definitely not knocking open down pipe because all my previous setups had it but im actually debating on going out the side with this one 4" on a s366 top mount

K7-1Ktrevor

that'd be pretty f[_]ckin sick.
