I just bought an all in one split dump/frontpipe.

The all in one design allows the wastegate pipe to be much longer than the HKS style split dump and separate frontpipe combo.

This is supposed to reduce turbulence therefore improving the flow.

Some say that the all in one bellmouth type can make more power in the top end than either of the split types when running high boost but not everyone agrees with this.

Do a search and make up your own mind.

i was origianally going to go for a split style one... from marky at Exhaust technology (SA)

However he informed me that with the stock O2 sensor, they apparently have 3 prongs or somethin like that, and one of those sensors registers the heat expelled out of the turbo/wastegate.

now if your on full boost for a while (ie long hills thrash) then the air coming out of the wastegate pipe is much hotter than waht the O2 sensor (in the front pipe still) is reading.

Dont know exactly how this effects the computer etc of a stockish car..... but marky informed me to simply go for a bellmouth design.

yer the one in looking at is an all in one screamer and front pipe, so its like a normal front and dump all in one pipe but the seperate wastegate pipe doesnt join back into the exhaust. So what do you guys think ..

Hey im getting a split dump very soon, a stainless steel one that goes from turbo to front pipe.

How is the factory unit restrictive???they look very similar in the pic above apart from the SPLIT design, is it just its flow capabilities of the stock one???

And i assume youll see the same amount of gains from going front/dump combo, or just the dump pipe unit itself with an aftermarket front pipe???

is it a good idea to have the split dump heatwrapped first?and how much wrap will i need?

i was all in on getting one of the batmbl ones but after showing my friends they all say to get the greddy split dump and blitz front pipe because suposedly where the front and dump join has alot of stress and they crack easily there with the 2 in 1 designs,

and its actually happened on my mates s15 he had a 2 in 1 design and it cracked right where the dump and front would usally joing now he has the greddy & blitz combo!

around the same price as batmbls too

      Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though

      and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.

      Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.

      There is a warning that "this thread is super old" but they ignore that anyway...

      With 10% Ethanol, we're talking 2-3% fuel consumption difference. The emissions reductions and octane boost in my opinion far outweigh this almost non existent loss.    My tanks sitting at 80%. Luckily that should go down fast as I'm on vacation again for the next two weeks.
