If possible has anyone here fitted a screamer pipe on a c1j? Watched a vid of Andy Cooke's and it sounds like it has one, might be wrong though.

I have seen one fitted to a five/c1j, it had a huge t3/t4 turbo if i remember correctly:eek:Quote:

I'm using a T25 Hybrid at the moment so not sure if it's possible to fit one.
Not really needed for a turbo like t25 mate,but is possible to fit one.Quote:

I'm in the process of having a manifold made up with a proper take off for an external waste gate, then on goes a screamer pipe:D

just for the sake of my ignorance
what is a screamer pipe and what are its benefits?
one hell of an exhaust note when its boosting :D dont know if there are any performance benefits
also got an external wastegate on mine,well its all ready to be bolted on i ended up using a k-tec manifold will post a pic tomoz

what does that support link (welded to the washer under the 13mm nut) connect to at the other end ? the bulk head ?Quote:

its not welded btw the bar is just bolted on, put loctite on the nut so it doesnt come off
ok, but the engine moves on its mounts and the bulkhead does not, so your putting a lot of strain on that link. I thought that would be obvious, or maybe I'm not understanding what you mean, sorry. ?
either way any support link wants bolting to the engine or gearbox.
get a clip of your car up then.:agree:Quote:

Also will get a vid up as soon as only prob is my clutch is going and 2nd gear synchro is on way out so trying not to use it :S
heres a few pics of mine,still need the screamer pipe makeing and a few little bits and bobs sorting then i can bolt it all together,and then test it:devil:

Just this min got in from a lunch time drive with a girl I know who own an 08' Subaru Sti.
They have a screamer fitted as standard.
