Getting there

Hi Bomber,

What made you choose a split dump over a 4"?

Will be good to see what gains you get from the new dump and cat.

YES!

The CES dump is nicely crafted and I got it s/hand at the right price. They're known for good boost control and low down response.

The car it came off ran the exact same exhaust as me both with and without a cat and ran 12psi tapering to 10 at redline. This was with the little turbo, standard actuator and housing. If it only creeps 2psi I'll take that all day. Most still seem to need a port and flapper with the F6 turbo, GTX etc as per a traditional 4" dump if wanting it tuned properly.

I'm keen to here from anyone that has run or better, tuned a little turbo'd FG running this dump. I'd like to fit it now but don't want to do a turbo mod at this stage as I possibly have a GTX3582R with already modified housing coming my way in February/March.

I ran a CES split dump and their exhaust on my Nissan S15 200sx. Plenty of 20 plus lap sessions at Bargabello and no cracking issues - mine was black ceramic coated. G-Tech timed the CES dump and exhaust nearly picked up a second over the quarter on the S15 on an otherwise stock motor. Nice low-mid range torque and top end. Was consistently pulling 200 klm's down the long track straight.

Called Race Brakes on Thursday for a price on T3's and ended up buying PBR upgrade rears in red, as fitted to F6 and GT. He has 3 sets available at the moment. Very good price - couldn't look past them.

Has delayed getting the fronts on but when I'm done, it will be exactly as I'd originally hoped. Basically, OEM FPV brakes but with T3's on all four. Very happy

Yesterday with DJR at Xtreme Karting on the goldie

Is there a way to protect the autograph Bomber or will it just fade after a while

In keeping with my 'doing everything twice' build, the 2.5" s/s twin x-force is going to be replaced with a full custom 3.5" s/s single with MagnaFlow mufflers

Very fortunate in that I have an extremely talented fabricator (Motor Fab) doing it for me at a very good price. The attached pics are of a customers 4" system getting its final touches. His systems are a work of art. You'll notice he fabricates a new centre mount (not finished) to minimise the load on the system to prevent cracks to dumps, etc.

The main reason for replacing the xforce is that it has a two bolt flange to mate to the factory dump (or currently venom bolt up) which is not ideal for 3.5". We were just going to cut it off and run a new three bolt flange to connect to the new cat and CES dump but that means I could never sell the system as a straight bolt up plus, it's actually getting pretty loud (remember I'm old, lol). So, the goal is make it flow better but actually shut it up a bit with decent sized free flowing mufflers.

Wow nice!
