I got one of these too, can't say I noticed any difference since I only just put it on with a hypergear high flow turbo. It's just an easier option from installation perspective without costing an arm and a leg for HPI

Didn't have to grind anything either, matched the turbo fine and waste gate can open/close freely

In my previous r33 I have tried both bell mouth and split (long split, not the hks copy) setup without altering anything else, I must say I noticed better midrange response with the split setup- no dyno sheet to compare max power however but I didn't really care about what the max power was

Turbo was an r33 highflow with garret bb CHRA done by precision- it was a very responsive turbo

I know most people prefer bell mouth, and may think otherwise, but I'm just sharing my experience

Just to throw another variable in the mix... I have been pretty disappointed with a very popular brand inexpensive dump pipe. Apart from some alignment issues, just take a look at the opening where it connects to the turbo:

The wastegate flap on a hypergear turbo can foul if you have an aftermarket actuator which opens a little further than the stock one.

Keep in mind on a hypergear turbo, the turbine outlet is even larger, meaning that even the gasket opening will be slightly smaller than the turbine outlet diameter. It would be a good idea to have one made, or modify and existing one. The stuff coming out of china can be just too variable in quality and shape.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
