Boost activated downpipe dump

[tom j]

This is the exhaust dump that sound performance sells. I decided to put into the DP because of lack of space and I thought the closer to the turbo the better also the transition turned out better.

Your awesome! I have a suabru that i took the hoodscoop off of and Ive been fabbing an air grobber like the old b bodies had. and your exhaust dump using a waste gate actuator will work perfect!

Very trick, I love it.

under normal driving conditions the gate stays closed and exhaust runs through the mufflers and tailpipes... under boost the gate opens the dump and exhaust exits through the dump, reducing backpressure and spoolup and making beautiful music ... .should sound like a diesel spooling

Any updates?

Man this looks awesome. Great idea...

I have about 35 of those actuators if you want them. The warranty replacement tailpipes on the Ferraris have them. I took'em all off and scrapped the pipe.

And how long were you planning on hoarding them Dan?

Right about until this thread. :biggrin:

and when the Po Po pulls you over and asks you to rev it up it's nice and quiet. I'd love one! Someone should make these at a reasonable price. Hint Hint!

I agree....would be great on a street car.

How about using one of the electric motor operated exhaust cutout dump valves and have it activated by a hobbs switch.

Jegs sells an exhaust cutout valve at a reasonable price.

They also have dump pipes at a reasonable price. http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/555/30752/10002/-1

A hobbs switch you can get at napa fairly cheap.

Very slick.

I can't believe that no one's done this before on a TB.

Nice job.
