Dandy Exhaust. I got quoted $300 for Dump Pipe


Recommended Posts

high? You get your ass under that and do the work

think about it this way

1 - they have to wait for the car too cool down, taking workshop space

2 - someone has to spend at LEAST an hour too 2 hours making it

3 - its a business and they have to make a profit

$300 is cheap

Why not get a combo 3" dump/front pipe from batmbl for $250 all up? Its all about numbers, its very expensive to make a one off exhaust system, why not get one thats already made? Or do you have an aftermarket turbo?

:werd:

this man speaks the truth

:rofl:

is that inclusive of installation or not?

cause from what i can tell ash it isnt stated... so chill :)

look on ebay... my mate just got a stainless one for 180 and a stainless manifold for 280... YAY EBAY!

that's including installation, yes. providing they dont run into problems or anything.

eg. drill out the bolts or watever coz of rust.

RHETT

i dont have aftermarket turbo. i already have front pipe, its just the dump pipe im getting done.

Thanks for your input guys. Greatly Appreciated.

i agree...try doing it on a 40 degree day sweating your aggots out snaping off exhuast studs and nuts with weld spatter going all over you.....people go out on the turps for a night and torch a few hundred buck trying to pick up women...then question spending it on there cars when someone wants to get paid for the time they spent working on it...i am with ash

a mate of mine at work is looking to do some mods to his 94 r33 turbo.. it has a cat back jasma exhaust runing standard cooler and standard boost..

I suggested he get a dump/front pipe and hi flow cat and boost it too 11-12psi using bleeder valve and have the work done by a reputable tuner...ie racepace...

Change of subject a bit but how much all up would we be expecting to pay for all of this work??

$500-$600??

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
