You already got plenty of reply's but why not one more

We are expensive http://www.burnsstainless.com

 

I bought a wastegate dump tube from Ben @ ImportParts, then went to Pep Boys and bought a bunch of 45 degree bends and clamps for now. It looks like ****, but didn't cost me more than $20. When I get my exhaust made I'll just have the guy make me a new dump tube.

 

Thanks for the replies again. If anyone else comes across this just feel free to drop a site because it's nice to add more sites to my favorites.

Thanks Again
Chuck

get what you pay for

 

http://www.summitracing.com has 1.5" U bends for $9.95.

 

I made this from 1.5 inch Conduit piping that i bought from Home Depot for $1.99..

This was on my 46mm watsegate, but i made a similiar one thats on my 38mm right now..

 

dont you think that angle is a little intense?

 

I use the same **** that ron used. Ideally, you do not want such a sharp bend at the exit, but clearances for dump tubes are sometimes a bitch and require an angle like that.

I had a very similar angled dump tube like rons on my old set-up and there was no difference to be told between running the tube vs no tube.
