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 ?

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
