Have seen a few threads around recently... either asking the best way to put a screamer on a std internally gated turbo... and seen alot more screamer type dumps available.

what's the deal? even though they sound crap, is this the new thing? will someone make some for my GTR?

is this the new under-car neons / backwards stickers on the front doors?

Mate are you serious...... do you think they sound like crap? The benifit is quicker spool up thus more power earlier by keeping the exhaust gases seperate and reducing turbulance in the exhaust pipe witch puts less stress on the exhuast wheel, not too mention the crazy sound :happy: hope that helps mate

That's the biggest load of shit I've ever heard.

How does a screamer pipe give you quicker spool up?

It only works once the turbo has already spooled up and the wastegate has opened, it gives you better top end, yes. But unless you're running 400+ hp, theres no point, especially through the stock turbo.

Less stress on the exhaust wheel? How does an atmo venting wastegate do that?

Crazy sound? it sounds like an exhaust leak.

Mate are you serious......

yes.

yes.

no.

:happy:

Yes my mistake, you are right about the spool up part...... but i wouldnt say its pointless. For instance BATMBL's split dump pipes have been dyno proven to make more power in the top end, even though his plumbs back into the exhaust the idea is essentially the same. As for the sound, some like it and some dont..........

mmmmmmm, wet fart.

Using BATMBL's dumps is the same thread as int gated screamers is wrong.

Thats comparing apples & oranges as they are not the same thing save for maybe the materials they are made from.

Marcus, its the latest thing as you said. Its come with the whole "drifting" thing thats going on of late. Noticed that "everyone" these days seems to be drifting?

It will pass, hopefully sooner rather than later.

Stock turbo + screamer = pointless

keep it internally gated...... ive had the screamer .. as much as i loved it , it goes better with it plumbd up and the EPA doesnt wana see me again. just seems to feel better down low and at the top end now.

if u want wank factor... they are the winnah by a long stretch.....

GROUP BUY IN ASSORTED ANODISED COLOURS :D:):D

External gates sound tough ,but for street not really a great idea, the fine is like 10k or something like that.

but you may never get caught but yas know how it is and i guess just not worth all the hastle

on a stocker, i thought about it at one stage but yeah ,had to be realistic.

But on the same note i have also read the having you pipe plum back in would create

more scavangning and would actually increse exhaust flow speed in plumed correctly.

Anyhow that is my 2cents

goodnight all

I wouldnt worry too much, I wouldnt be suprised if in the next 12 - 18 months the "street-drag" scene in Japan comes alive again with RH9, 0-300, drag style events. Then everyone will be back to loud exhausts and stickers :D

Is it still a screamer pipe if it plumbs back into the exhaust pipe? Just about to install a split dump....will I get a different sound to it or is the different sound only apply to screamers that don't plumb back into the pipe...

Cheers,

(BTW Stock internal w/gated turbo)

a screamer is when it DOESNT go into the exhaust, hence it screames when the air is vented out to atmosphere,

ben...

Thank god. Cheers mate. I love the sound of my car..I dont want it to change :whistling:

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
