Default SVRTech wastegate dumps installed, review, pics and VIDEO!

So I got my relocation and dump tubes in from Scott on tuesday and installed them thursday and yesterday. The install went as smooth as it could go with those damn wastegate bolts and microwrenching, but it probably took a total of 5 hrs from start to finish on jack stands out in the parking lot.

The fit and finish of this kit is awesome. I had no problems getting anything to mount in place and let me tell you...the 5 hr wastegate removal, shouldn't take more than 30 minutes anymore. Now i'm not scared to have to remove the tranny again

Now since it is installed, HOLY F*CK it sounds awesome I cannot keep my foot off the gas, its just that rediculous. The video doesn't even do it justice at all. I planned on getting some outside of car footage today, but since it is raining I figured I would give you what I got and give you a follow-up vid of outside the car. The video is before and after with the kit installed in the car, windows half way down.

Please RIGHT-CLICK and SAVE-AS!!! http://mp-racing.net/wastegate_preview.wmv

And now for some pictures (higher resolution pics can be seen at http://mp-racing.net/gallery/Wastegatedump) (just click on the picture again to get full view)

very nice, so you just block off the side on the downpipe and bolt these on. seems easy enough, ingenious.

Hey MP...sounds good!

In addition to wrapping your 02 sensor wires, you might consider extending those 02 wires and relocating them all together.

Can't wait to hear your car in person again!

Yeah thats a good idea, they are kinda right in the line of fire, lol. As soon as those wheels get here, I'll take a venture down to charlotte maybe put it on the dyno and see what the dump tubes did to my power

Butt dyno def says response after the w/g's open is a little bit more smooth and faster. Obviously there is no difference any lower in the rpm band though.

Sounds like a great idea. I am hoping your wheels be here very shortly.

But they are so much louder in person, the video doesn't capture the loudness, just the violence of it when it hits boost now.

If you can't hear them in person, you really have no idea. Thumbs up on getting these to the market overzealous1. I have had mine for awhile and waiting for others to join. It is an addicting loud. You have to love dumping on people!

wait to see the pics of the production exhaust. the previous ones were just the prototype on my car to show the design. everything we do is all done by hand, no overseas companies, no welding machines, and true 3" on the duals and not a metric smaller version called a 3". it takes most of a day to build each one . the X pipe is cut, welded, and jigged all by hand. lots of time in that little guy. only other company i know of making them like this is burns stainless. with the test pipe section also included and the already welded in bungs for wideband and a dyno port, you definately get what you pay for!!

Nothing like it, right Jorge? It makes your car sound as fast as it is.

Definately nothing like it. It helps with the spool time. I don't have my dyno chart yet, but I was hitting full boost at like 2800 rpms. Who needs ball bearing?

Thanks for being the pioneer with these!
