i advertised to swap ages ago when it was on the car but anyways its off the car now and i wana try swap it for one where the wastegate pipe joins back into the front pipe or just a normal 3" front/dump pipe, it can be a single 2 in 1 pipe or 2 seperate front and dump pipes, the reason i wana swap it is cos the wastegate pipe was too close to the insulated aircon hose and melted it, i guess i was supposed to have put something between them or something. Does anyone have one of those hoses at all, its from an r33 gtst and its the silver insulated aircon hose going from the firewall to the aircon.

AM Performance have one similar selling for $390 so its a pretty good pipe, you can see from the pics that it has a pipe that will totaly seperate the wastegate which is better than just dividers which some have instead. Im pretty sure it will fit an r33 and r32 gtst

This is my one

it will fit a 34gtt , they got the same turbo flange. I bought a am performance screamer that was made for a 33 and bolted up to my 34 nicely. like he said how the screamer parts hits the aircon hose, i jsut wrapped some heat wrapping tape around it. ^^

yeah i wish i thought of that before melting the aircon hose, but yeah this is a very well made pipe. for those who dont know the screamer pipe makes alot of noise when your wastegate opens up but you can keep it quiet by slowly accelerating through the streets,

they are quite when cruising along but when waste gate opens at 4-5000 rpm then there loud as and sound amazing. i always boost in the back streets, people can hear me from 2-3 blocks away, i love it :P

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
