Wow that is great to hear, funny how something that small caused such a huge problem.
Congrats on the fix and your dump looks sweet.

I might have a little goldmine, hehe, you can build your own dump from the turbonetics kit. All you have to do is buy a seal flange at ur local muffler shop, it's 20 bucks with its gasket. then just flip the wastegate and cut the pipe that comes for the normal dump, and you use that. You've made yourself a dump, it looks good, and the angle is perfect.

now that I take a second look at the tube it looks like it's dumping on the oil pan. I don't know if that is safe as you could be heating up your oil. If it was blowing out a/c air it would be a good thing but the air coming out of that tube isn't too cold.
You may want to use a longer tube and get it pass the oil pan.

shoot, I have some 1 1/7" piping I was going to use on my last car as a WG dump, if anything, I could use that and fab something up, lol. Make it so it doesn't dump on the oil pan. then again, you don't want it dumping on the tire either hahaha

Acutally, it looks like it's facing the oil pan, it's not, it faces the floor, not really the oil pan. The angle would face the oil pan if it was higher, but it hit's straigh ground.
Guys, the car sounds a lot better in person.
I filmed this with a 4.0 Megapixel digicam. The microphone is the size of a 0.7 pen rolling ball.. LOL
