32 Exhaust

[kingy_06]

Not sure if this is the right section and not sure if been covered as i searched though couldnt find it! I have a stock 32 gtst with just an apexi pod, im gettin a new exhaust fitted this week, 3" turbo back, hi flow cat, was just wondering if this will increase my boost? My car is just running stock boost - 7PSI. Any information would be great.

Cheers

It will, but such a slight increase it won't be noticeable.

If it is an r32, then boost will be more like stock 10.5psi.

Turbo should spool up earlier, and be able to breath better; more power

Thanks Mulker...was under impression that stock was 7PSI! Was looking at those $22 boost controllers and look good, how much boost can i run with stock intercooler?

with the exhaust you will notice better spool time, and more power.

I did with my crappy old red-top, so the silver has gotta be better again.

stock I/C is definately on the limit, no need for a boost controller till you've change the I/C to a R34 side mount, or bigger

[kingy_06]

Was looking into 34 I/C do they basically slot straight in! Also with m new exhaust what type of PSI should i be seeing?

[R31Nismoid]

it'll be around 10psi if i recall, each car seems to be different of course.

Get a boost gauge and see

I believe the R34 is a drop in.

Check the sticky thread, and this link. Its probably got the infor your after, i just dont have time to go through it for ya

R34 sidemount is "NOT" a direct replacement for an R32..

it "IS" a direct replacement to an R33 or a stagea.

to fit an R32, you need to do one of 2 things to fit it.

1.) make changes to the piping down near the cooler to fit the new inlet angle.

or

2.) take your R32 stock intercooler and your newly purchased R34 side mount intercooler to a local aluminium welder (just find one in the yellow pages) and tell them to weld the end tank on the r34 cooler so that the pipes face the exact same direction as teh r32 cooler.

now it will bolt straight on.

note.. this above information is pretty much what Sydneykid wrote in another thread of what he did to mount an R34 intercooler to an R32.

the welding job cost him about $50 if I recal.
