How To Quiet'n My Screamer

[Mick]

Hey i have a screamer pipe in my R33 GTST and its very very loud, if i had known it was goin to be this loud i probably wouldnt have brought it, but it made my car so much more peakier, not because its a screamer or anything, just the fact that its 3" and b4 it i just had a standard. Its a dump and front pipe all in one 3" with a seperate pipe for the wastegate which is short and open (doesnt connect back into the exhaust) if you know what i mean. Now i have seen screamer pipes that are connected back into the exhaust and i was wondering how much quieter they would be. I hate the fact that if i take off faster that rolling speed it sounds like im hooning which i rarely do. I hope ive explained this properly and if anyone can give me some advice i would apreciate it ..

Plumb it back into the dump pipe. It will be many times quieter.

Get rid of it for one that is plumbed into the exhaust. They don't call them "Screamers" because they are quiet.

hey thanks for the replys, if i took it in to get it plumbed back into the exhaust how far down should i plumb it back in and what kinda angle ?

Well the other option is to just get a Bellmouth style dump pipe, if its feasible with your turbo set up.

I carnt just replace the dump pipe as mine is a one peice front and dump pipe.

What is a bellmouth dump pipe ? ive never heard of it before ..

It's where the wastegate outlet or "Screamer" is not separate.

If your dump pipe is built into the front pipe then this should be what you need.

By the way that was off just jap:

Shouldn't take long to replace it yourself at home if your into it. Socket set and a bit of elbow grease should have it done in an hour or so.

is it a screamer on a stock turbo?

If so, just change the dump, you'll be the better for it anyhow

you can quieten it down completely by taking it off and sending it my way.. hahaha

nah in all seriousness i agree with FLY12N, a bellmouth dumpy may be just what you need.
