at the moment my car is running stock exhaust. looking for some suggestions from you all as to what is best, thinking of trying to find some three inch dumps and not sure after that...... anyone with ideas and suggestions, i am after performance rather than noise. thanx heaps
3" toyz dumps to 3" exhaust all the way through. Turbs don't need backpressure. The more flow the better. Mmmmmmmm.... exhaust......
Dumps $400 including post... eBay muffs $300, high flow 3" cats $500, labour + custom piping $400... Expensive really... $1600 all up or there abouts... The n-power/tune agent dumps do a great job for the price tho and a 2.5" system is pretty common... Dumps + fronts $250 (no cats) Bolt up to existing aftermarket cat back exhaust... Ran same dumps on the old z with great results! All comes down to $$...
There are some dumps going on the AMS thread http://www.aus300zx.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1149026#post1149026 Toyz 3" Dumps - $328 + shipping
Stock turbos need 4 bolt dumps. If you have stock turbos and minimal mods and no thoughts of upgrading anytime soon, just get a cat back. Too much stuffing around trying to remove 20 year old baked on dumps with engine in situ - IMO.
Yes! It's bad enough getting dumps off that have only been on for a year or two. And I wouldn't bother with the NPower dumps, pretty crap really. Ported stock dumps perform better.
He's removed and rebuilt the turbos so the dumps should be okay to remove. Car hasn't gone anywhere since he did the work so they should be fine.
It only took me about two hours to get mine off the other day. It is not a fun job but it wasn't that hard
x 2... I didnt have too much trouble getting my dumps off... Also found the N-power dumps had a noticeable improvement in spool up time... Although, that could also have been attributed to 20yr old cats being removed
had the dumps off last week with engine in car so that is not too much of a problem. not too sure if i will upgrade any time soon, but want to leave myself available to.
Well since you still have stock turbos you will still need 4 bolt dumps. Stick with a cat back until you decide to upgrade to 5 bolt turbos, then at that stage get some big 5 bolt dumps and 3 inch front pipes to join your cat back
