Im currently looking at getting a 3in split dump but not sure whether to buy off ebay or get one made?

im running at 2 in 1 dump/front. wish i had bought a split dump in the first place as from what i read its better. mine was bought bout 2 yrs ago from batmbl and his prices are still relatively cheap. I dont know why you would need to go custom unless you have aftermarket turbo - or if the a/m turbo didnt have dump included.

I got a bell mouth (not split system) turbo to cat dump pipe, 3inch stainless steel, for $220 from JustJap on ebay. Top quality for the price I guess, and definately a power gain :)

Nozila, I know what you mean about rather buying a split pipe to start with, guess it comes down to finances at the time tho :( I figured myself $200ish was more than adequate, rather then twice that for a split system. Maybe one day down the track....................... :D

Hmmmm - anyone want a 3inch bellmouth stainless steel turbo to cat pipe? only 4000kms old ! :O:kiss:

if you go custom, dont bother going stainless steel cause mild steel would just do the job just as good at a fraction of the cost - material wise that is. my dump/front (mild steel) has been on for years and its still in as new condition, same goes for my cat back exhaust (mild steel) in same condition i bought it in - over 4 yrs now not to mention how long its been used prior to me having it. just a thought.

I've got a CES split dump - more pricey than other split dumps out there, but the quality really is fantastic.

Haven't used a standard dump so I can't compare the two, but the improvement the dump made when it was installed was great! Great guy to deal with over the phone too - helpful and prepared to spend some time on the phone talking/explaining about the product.

GOT MINE DONE AT D & T

SPLIT DUMP TO JUST BEFORE THE CAT (CUSTOM) WITH NEW METAL RACING CAT.

SPOOLS UP ABOUT 500 RPM QUICKER AND YOU CAN FEEL THE INCREASED POWER

I had them do my exhaust system.

Back then they swore black and blue that the split dumps don't increase power or spool, they said it was a load of crap. I think it was more the case they hadn't done one before.

Ahh well now these gt35r internal gates are out I will be grabbing a new dump soon anyway. :(

Cheers for all your replies guys, now im thinking of just goin mild steel instead of stainless.

Split dump and front pipe sounds the best!

Thanks

good choice, stainless aint worth the money. no one is going to squat under your car and go omfg, bling bling he has stainless pipes :woot: - or somethng to that effect. engine bay, on the other hand, is understanable.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
