ok heres my question... i have a drag gen 3 manifold and the wastegate is near the timing belt side, also my turbo inlet is facing the driver side wheel... i was wondering if i made a dump tube where the AC fan use to be but after the turbo inlet and before the oil pan... maybe a lil further down then the oil pan or the same height as the oil pan (measuring from the ground). the question is will i have any problem with the heat of the external wastegate dump tube being so close to the turbo?? the wastegate will open at full boost and the car will be moving fast and the air will be pushing the air coming out of the dump tube to the back of the car... hope you guys understand what im saying... sorry if i didnt make myself that clear... what i mean is its almost like the side exit dump tube coming out to the side of the front bumper but instead having it go straight down but mayb 2-3 inch away from the turbo and 2-3 inch away from the oil pan... thanks in advance...

ugh.......... i am so confused.

 

basicly what i mean is between the oil pan and the turbo inlet is it ok to have the wastegate dump tube there between those two?

 

I have the same manifold. My dump tube exits just below the oil pan. It goes strait out towards the front of the car, turns down just past the turbo and then one it clears the turbo it curves back toward the rear of the car. The opening is just below the oil pan

 

youll be fine if your that worried about it just header wrap it.

 

Will the exhaust from the dump tube get sucked in by the turbo?

not if it is as low as the bottom of the oil pan or lower

 

ok... thanks for the help... because i was thinking would it really matter?? cuz when the dump tube opens up the car will be moving, and the velocity will be pushing that air towards the back of the car
