I feel and hear the turbo breath easier and spool up is about 100-200 rpm better than on 2.5inch dp.

muhahaha, Joe has found me at Sema in Vegas by only talking in the German- US Slang hehe, he know me.

BTW: The 2nd O2 Sensor is a Bosch wide band for the dyno. It was 180 bucks and I can attache it to the Bosch Lamda Meter when I need it.

edit: Thats not me in the Pic

Ya those kangaroos are damn quick off of the line.

Niiice DP dood.

 

Looks awesome. Did you or a shop make it?

 

The guy in the pic is a friend of mine, he did the welding job. I bought and organized the pipeing stuff.

 

pretty tight.

 

At first I really thought that was the downpipe. Nice little story line of it all coming together.

 

Kangaroos in Austria...ahahaha

I guess you said bye bye to your A/C then?

 

Nice downpipe!!!, sine your fabricating customer pipes you might want to make you some new charge pipeing, maybe its just me but doesnt it look like flimsy tubeing is running from the turbo?(if not sorry)

 

I pulled the AC sytem out last winter. Too heavy, to much space and I sold it for 550 bucks.

That tubing from the Turbo is actualy the intake/compressor side. I mounted the air filter at the inner fender, where it can suck in cold air.

Cool. How can you live there and not have A/C....(lol)[

 

Is that a wideband O2 sensor? Why is there 3 sensors?
What do they call that thing at the end of the downpipe that looks like braided metal bands? What does that do?

ha i feel like a newbie

 

its a bosch wideband O2, i was wondering that also and had to go back an read it again.

the flexi pipe lets the engine have a lil "give" so it doesnt break the exhaust/turbine/manifold when the engine is torquing around.

is it good to leave the wideband plugged in all the time? i thot widebands had a shorter life than narrowband sensors?

 

what did you use to cut the pipes?.. i want to make my own but i don't know what to cut the pipes with...

 

Where did you pick up suck a nice short 3" flexpipe?

 

pipe cutter or a hacksaw works well!

 

Thats a bad place for the egt sensor, it should be closer to the head.

Not bad looking on the dp though. Me and racerxadam constructed mine....heres the link to it.

Looks good, mate!

 

Does that dude wear a mask when he's welding. His face looks super dark compairedto the rest of his body.
