This is my wastegate and dumptube setup. Will i have a problem with the turbo sucking up the exhaust gasses with the dmptube being as short as it is?

i dont want my power to be affected, so i thought i would ask

thanks

wont hurt it but i would get it made longer or re-route it into the exhaust so it doesnt sound like shit.

i think open dump sounds mean as all hell. i like it, and im running open DP so it wont really matter too much. i just want to make sure that the gasses wont effect power output

thanks for the comment :TU:

the exhaust gasses will kill your power. try routing to either the fender, or under your car. i found out how much a differance exhaust gasses kill power the hard way.

so i should just extend the tube to run down beside the dp? would that work?

that whould work very well. especially if you give it a few tac welds for structural integrity. trust me, youll still hear the wastegate open. some people think it even sounds louder because it resonates off of the ground.

i would definitely route it away from anything that could create heat soak or that cools the engine

wont hurt

uh...YES it will...

route it under the oilpan to make sure no gasses get sucked into the turbo

 

[superdewey58]

as a rule it need to clear the oil pan

my dumptube points just like that DSM

one note is that exhausts like that tend to get into the cockpit when sitting at traffic lights and thats not really good for you.. all that carbon monoxide and other various gases. lol

lol ok. ive had ones way shorter than that before....

and yea if youre already running open downpipe then you'll be ok.

extend the dump tupe under the engine. After the oil pan works best

the heat coming off a dump tube that short would kill your power levels. i think it was jeff evans who gained 85 whp by rerouting his dumptube

it doesnt mean your not murdering your power. at first i thought mine would be fine running no dump at all; boy was i wrong. running your dump in the engine bay can also over heat your turbo causing things to break, in my case the compressor backing plate.

no it wont effect it but you will want to make it longer and make sure it goes down and not itno the engine bay

Are you not reading what has been said? Were are you getting your information?

If the dump tube is short and in tern the turbo sucks up that exhaust it WILL HURT YOUR POWER! End of story! :closed:
