Front Pipe Vs. Dump Pipe For R33 Gtr

[R33-RB26DETT]

Hi All,

I am about to purchase a cat back exhuast and i also was thinking of upgrading my front and dump pipes..

Do you really need to upgrade both for max power gains or just the Front Pipe?

All input and opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Harry

Front pipe first.

Wait till you upgrade turbos, then change dumps at same time.

Ok cool, so i guess what your saying is the power gains from stock gtr turbos with a new dump pipe will be minimal..?

The only thing is that i was thinking of running 1 bar of boost(which apparently my turbos can handle comfortably?)

If i were to run 1 bar of boost does this mean that i should conider purchasing a dump pipe to ensure better air flow and longer life of turbos?

Cheers.

front pipes are alot easier to change.

what infamous_t is saying wait till you change your tubos coz you have to take off the turbos to change the dumps.

and changing the turbos aint exactly a 5min job

Gotcha, thanks guys.

I guess i am just worried that a turbo back exhaust system wont increase power that much without the dump pipes..

Do you think that i will notice a big power difference if i just upgrade the front pipes and cat back exhaust?

Anyone have experience with before and after?

Thanks again.

there should be a between 20-35kw gain maybe more but you can defantly feel the difference

wow thats a huge power gain!

Hopefully im more towards the 35Kw spectrum with a good exhaust..

Yeah as said,

dont bother doing the dumps untill you change your turbos.

and dont go over 1bar! unless you want to be buying new turbos soon...
