Hey this winter im doing a external 50-Trim setup and i was told that i could dump the wastegaet tube, and cut a hole in my bumper and it would be really loud, which is what i want, i want it to be really loud and noticeable. I was wondering if anyone had any pictures or a how to do guide, and is it really that much louder?
 
Its prob quieter then alot of people externals. I know alot of people only have a few inches of tube,were as you would have a few feet. Be prepaired of carbon on your paint, but it sure look nice.

turbosax2 : nice work on providing all that info +1
 
On my gsx i have it dumped out the bumper and well its very loud with your window down and your next to a car or wall. really easy to do just it does turn the bumper black LOL.
 
Its really a little bit quieter then just a straight dump tube, sounds about the same.Oh and you would never want to just dump it in the engine bay, well unless you like melting things. But i do like having it dump out the bumper it scares the shit out of people when it opens and there windows are down.
 
we did it on an EVO not too long ago. Sounds like A F*IN BEAST!

LOL looks like i am the only one thats going to do it, and the sound, is it like an obnoxious and doesnt sounds good at all, or does it sound realy good
 
Does anyone else make these kits?
And any cleaner way to make it look under the engine bay? that pipe looks like butt.
 
Also anyone else got pics of how it looks under the hood? I'm not a fan of how the flexible piping and the clamp look at all.
 
Wish I had a damn tig. Too bad you live so far away. I'll keep you in mind either way though, I'll be ordering the o2 housing and tial hopefully soon.

I don't own one either (they're damn expensive) but my work does. You don't live too far away from me. If you are ever down this way I'd be happy to put something together for you.
 
How large of a black smudge on your bumper does the exhaust from the dump tube make? I'm thinking that if one was to fab up a trim piece similar to the one on the EVO pictured above, but large enough that ONLY the trim peice would get black, that cleaning the exhaust carbon off would be a whole lot simpler.
 
Im also interested in doing this but have not found a kit for wastegates with vband clamps can someone point me in a direction here.
