sup guys, ive had my 3" monkey warehouse screamer on for about 1mth now. and i have to say i like it alllloot.

basically.....well u guys know the setup.

seperate pipe for wastegate....yea u know it.

just want to know if there are any specific pro's or cons'

atm it is running sweet.

=edit. also, would it be better to have a bellmouth, although a tad restrictive.

or keep the screamer, as the wastegate gas is seperated, =no turbulance in dump pipe.

Con: They are fun for a while,then they are noisy and annoying

Con: If you get taken over the pits prepare to bend over.

ha yea, im starting to miss the spool up noise. the screamer kicks in at about 2500rpm.

when i get sick, ill go a bellmouth dump pipe.

love the spool

pro

free exhaust backpressure release

i guess if you like the sound, then the sound

cons

major defect and epa violation (risk of big fine)

exhaust gas / heat in the engine bay area (could be burning stuff etc)

The only pro is noise.

If the exhaust is designed well from the outset, then plumbing in should not pose a restriction.

I had one when i was external gate, i must admit i dont mind how quiet my car is now

im with u 2bnvs.

but i must admit that if i get bored, i can just bolt on my jjr bellmouth.

but i do love the screamer pipe. especially with 5k+revs.

sounds just like a jet engine

personally I think screamer on an internal gate turbo (what you have) is pretty lame. a proper screamer (on an external gate) like what most people in this thread are talking about is an aquired taste. sounds impressive, but also sounds a bit 'dirty'.

Screamer's are illegal in QLD it's just that most cops here are not car wise and wouldn't have a clue what one was. It's coming though, cops are getting trained to identify things like this. At the moment as long as you don't have a BOV placed visibly under the bonnet your generally right, you can have whatever you want.

You must agree though due to the laws of physics, an identical exhaust without the wastegate plumbed back into the exhaust (screamer pipe) is always going to flow better than an exhaust with the wastegate plumbed back.. :whistling:

The only pro is noise.

Well ye to an extent. If the exhaust flows enough, then there is nothing to offer.

Seen a number of cars go internal or screamer. Didn't make a difference to them.

But then my own car lost a good chunk, that was due to me only having a 3" and over 300rwkw :whistling:

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
