so the dmp tube vents the exhaust to atmosphere?? I figured it would reconnect to the exhaust. I just hope it will still pass emissions setup that way .

if it reconnects to the exhaust, its a recirculated dump. open dump to the atmosphere.

Mr_Meaty

Either way should not effect emmissions.

^ yup

olaHalo

is yours still open phil or did you connect that dump tube on there?

Mr_Meaty

i just got some new bolts and a gasket from hieu last night.
I'm gonna go wash off my engine bay and put the old dump tube back on tonight.

how about you? does your dump tube clear your oil pan tap?

Oh, and when Todd sends my new, bent, dump tube, I'll give heiw back the new bolts and gasket.

Mr_Meaty

hieu, what was your home depot fix?
get any further with the pipeing and downpipe?

aen

yup, piping i mapped up. and the downpipe.....hah. i sent you a message on yahoo telling you what i said to treadstone.

i officially dont' like their faces.

Mr_Meaty

huh? You made a downpipe from stuff at home depot?
Didn't get your IM either.

aen

no, i fixed that MAF thing. thats crazy. downpipe?

nebster

i must say.... i might be going TT

olaHalo

your using home depot piping heui?

phil
i pretty much tapped the oil pan in the same spot you did or the one todd brought over pretapped. we just hammer the hell out of the wastegate dump tube till it cleared it. it still rubs a little though. its one of my many little fixes i have planned.
but its good for now

Mr_Meaty

so...how'd you do it?

pics?

Mr_Meaty

Hey, let me tell you all how freakin hot that manifold gets!:

So, I had my car sitting out, cooling off, cause I had to spray down the engine bay so I could better track down the oil leak. I spray it off, let is sit, and then I pulled it into the garage.
It was running maybe 5 minutes, never got on it or anything.
I shut it off and pop the hood, looking for the leak, and I hear some krakling and popping!
I look in the top of the manifold, where the 4 runners meet up, and in that little pocket is a small pool of water...BOILING!

nebster

yeah man thats exhaust gases for u hahaha

olaHalo

put a layer of that on the underside of your hood. that should do it.

olaHalo

ya i got that stuff^^
comes with the kit haha.
TT pwns

nebster

oh then you'll be fine. its an insulation so you wont have to worry about the paint peeling off.

olaHalo

ya your right. just after 1 day of boost im paranoid as hell.
i checked everything like 199988 times already and im still worried.
while i was drving last night a car next to me drove through a puddle and it made a slap noise. i freaked out and pulled over and poped the hood. i was like "what was that noise???!!"
better safe than sorry when it comes to turbo
