Proper way of rerouting dumptube?
I'm going to share my method of doing rerouted dumptube. Obviously I start out with the downpipe and the wastegate outlet sitting where I want them to be. Then I start fabbing the dumptube and welded it as a separate piece, I made a mistake before in which I tacked everything onto the downpipe then the weldings go afterward. This wasn't a good idea since it will be hard to weld with the manifold and the downpipe all in one piece. I saved the last two welds at both ends for last, one at the flange and one that goes on the downpipe.
To make sure perfect alignment, the dumptube and wastegate was still attached during the welding process.
I started with the weld on the downpipe first. (I welded it with the whole setup sitting on the block like that)
Then I moved onto the last weld.
And the finished product

nice work, and thanks for the write up.
Ive always been intrested in closed loop systems for some reason, and this is like icing on the cake.

Looks like a very clean setup
to your work.
However I heard that when the dumptube is routed into the DP, it causes "fireballs" thru the exhaust ?
Is that true?
