I spoke to a muffler bloke this morning and he reckons 4" could stop the turbo spooling as early as it does now ??????

Just want it too run sweet , with no shit :woot:

Then find someone who knows what they are talking about.

Don't ever ask a muffler man for perfomance advise, especially that clown

The easier gases can get away from a turbo the faster they can get through a turbo making the turbo spool faster

You would think they would know something about exhaust if they are in the trade ?

So you would have to step it up from the back of the turbo to fit the 4" down pipe

Hate farking cars :)

All but one exhaust guy I have ever met has had no farking idea.

Their industry is full of old wives tales.

Go ask any exhaust bloke to make a set of headers, and once he is done ask him what rpm band they were built for and do they match the cam choice etc...

Yes, if you look closely mine has that done to it

Someone who knows what they are doing will be able to fabricate a dump pipe to cat setup for you easily.

But what that muffler guy said is absolute rubbish.

Joe just posted as I was typing, but yes you have to step it up if look back to his pictures he uploaded.

When is your car going back to crd pete?

They have a couple of weeks with some Motorsports commitments , so some time after that.

If I get a local bloke to do the 4" down pipe and the Cat, is there anything I should make sure they do, does the down pipe have to be coated ?

Would I be able to sell the down pipe, shit it is new :(

Unfortunatly that down pipe is just about useless pete.. Probably the only one I've seen where its stepped down straight away..

Maybe someone who needs a 3 inch dump could cut the start of the flange off but chances are slim that it would for someone else's set up :/

I coated mine to keep the heat out.. More $$ though

It looks like that but I wonder if it looks like that because it is right up on the bend and I think bends tend to take some size of tube, but ?

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
