It's all right for tonight, cruising in a corvette and feeling alright!

haha, well considering the engine is being pulled it wont be available. Damn baffled sumps! :D. Anyway, CES fitted mine and just used 2 normal 2.5" cats and tilted them sideways to fit, not sure if this picture shows it properly though. The bar only melts when I go to the track, cause it is such a big heavy exhaust, when doing serious corners it must press against the side of the gap for the zaust. You mustn't be driving hard enough eh?? hehe, jokes :Pimp2:

LoL, i drive it hard.. jus never had a chance to take it on the tracks yet.. Have you dynoed it after you put on the zaust? i got 215kw@all4s with just the zaust and pods (stock boost). I thank the zaust for the good power. Also what dump pipes do u have? Im still using the stock dumps.

I got 197awkw on the mercury motorsport dyno with just the exhaust and a nismo panel filter(stock boost also). Still got the stock dumps for the minute, but one of the things going in atm is a pair of hks dumps to finish the exhaust. I am interested to see what, if any, difference they make.

the wastegate sound will be louder i know that much. it should also give it a diffrent tone. those stock dumps are shocking, i cant belive i had stock dumps at 300awkw. when they pulled the stock dumps off i couldnt belive how badly they reduce in size :O

CES make there own dumps, thats where i got mine from n e way. just make sure u get the HPC coated ones.

i think they were around $900

give them a call.

check out there website

the hks dumps actully go down in size at the bottom of the pipe which is STUPID !!! why o why would they do that ??? doesnt make sence,

thats why i went the CES ones they were bigger than the HKS DUMPS and arrived the same day i ordered them :O

    • Hi. This is just my curiosity because iam sure the tuner figure something out...but either way i want to ask. The "problem" is that the Nistune ECU (Stagea FW and RB25DET NEO from Stagea) sees many times the speed than the speedo does(he says the speedo show 120 km/h - correct speed and the ECU shows like 510km/h ) I told him that this car/tranny getting speed from rear diff. If iam not mistaken the RB25DET NEO "need" to see tranny speed sensor? (my tranny has the plug for it). So couple of "question" If he connects/wire the speed sensor to the tranny...are the signals gonna intervene and if...what if he disconnects the rear diff one and the speedo stops working? Or the "new" sensor from the tranny "take over" and will not going need the one from diff? As i said i know he figure/get that done...iam just curious to know what are the solutions 🙂 
    • Your IACV is set to idle too low. You need to adjust it via the screw Duncan mentioned. From memory it should be 650rpm with the valve electrics unplugged. What is it trying to idle at with the IACV plugged in?
    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
