Hi,

Im looking at buying a dump pipe and front pipe for my RB20DET. Im running a R34 turbo and was wondering which system would be best. I can either get the seperate dump and front pipe or the the dump pipe and front pipe in one. Buying them seperate is alot more expensive but I was wondering if it would be worth it? I was also wondering how much the boost will raise once i put the dump pipe on?

Thanks

Matt

Check out BATMBL on this forum. His stuff is good, with split dump/front pipes available. But i'm not sure how you will go with havig an R34 turbo on an RB20, you might have to make some modifications.

Mate just go the front and dump pipe in one because you won't need a screamer pipe (the one sold seperate) unless you are shooting for/have crazy horsepower...plus they are illegal and you will cop a massive fine and a nice yellow canary for the screamer.

I am getting the 2 together and they say you can raise it by about 2-4 psi but I would still be cautious if you don't have a FMIC or anything else...

Sorry mate, thought I could be wrong, but have been told by a mechanic that that was a screamer...might not go to that mechanic again then hey...

However, frost is right you would need to get a front pipe fabricated and would probable cost a fair bit

Screamer is when the wastegate gasses are dumped straight to the atmosphere (ie the wastegate pipe doesnt plumb back in)

I would buy one of BATMBL's split pipes. He has a group buy running at the moment so just get one of those. If the R34 turbo bolted up to the stock R32 dump, then I'd say BATMBL's dump/front pipe should work ok (check with him first)

The first one is certainly your best choice out of the two displayed. The separation of the pipes in the second one is not long enough this will cause too much turbulence where the pipes meet. Split dumps are good but there needs to be at least 30cm of separation before the pipes join.

The BATMBL split dump/front pipe would be a better option than the two displayed.

Thanks guys,

Yeah I will get the Dump pipe and Front pipe in 1. Hopefully I will get a 2psi boost or more. Will the standard CAT be a problem? I wanna get a hi-flow but cant afford it at the moment, any cheap way of making my standard one hi flow? Im running 10psi at the moment which is standard. Will the boost be stable when running at 12psi or more? or should i put on my boost controller? (Turbotech Manual Boost controller).

Im running:

FMIC

R34 Turbo

K&N Air Filter

3 and a half inch form cat back

Lighten Flywheel

Extreme Clutch

Thanks

lol... well you have a few defectable items there already, so in theory you could just completely remove all the honeycomb from the cat, but it's illegal and I wouldn't suggest it for an onroad car.

Better off saving for an xforce 3" large body cat. They're about $300 from JustJap, and have the cat sensor thread in them already.

but the fine for a hollow cat is a few thousand dollars more than the fine for the rest of the defects. i got my x-force cat for $175 off ebay. and i agree with kennedy that a highflow cat will give a bigger power gain than a front/dump pipe if the stock cat is still there.

      CD009 RB Conversion

      Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.

      Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell

      Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups.

      75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.

      Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
