Just wanted to thank all the guys at MRC for doing my turbonetics install. Julian suggested to put in a exhaust dump due to the fact that my borla exhaust was very restrictive. and WOW what a difference, car sounds like an animal. we gained around 20 horsepower with the dump. My car is making 375 whp at about 9 psi. New mods include: TN ST - UTEC - APS feul return - 440 cc injectors - JWT clutch/flywheel/oil pan spacer - crawford plenum. Thank Guys...........

 

did you get the "i brought cookies discount!!" ??

 

haha, is that a QTP exhaust cutout? thats what i was thinking about doing with my exhaust. car looks good. did yall dyno with the cutout closed vs open? oops NM, saw where you said 20hp gain. nice. is it REAL loud?

 

car sounds insane but in a good way. ya i think its qtp.

 

NICE! I saw your car there yesterday as I was dropping off some stuff. Glad you got her back! it must sound insane.....

 

Thats awesome, Im surprised more guys dont run the open dump. Was the 375whp corrected or actual #'s?

 

Good deal. I'm actually planning on doing almost the same thing (but a little different).

The install looks good. But, is it just me or do the welds on the dump pipe look like poop? I'm probably just being ****, so it should be just fine.

I'm surprised that the Borla exhaust would be that "restrictive" running only 9psi/375whp. I remember someone (ZPHATZ I think) running one and having overboost issues, so I assumed it was pretty free-flowing.

Now, lets get some sound clips.

 

Where does the dump get patched in? Before or after the cats? And do you worry about flames shooting out of there heating up the underside?

 

the dump was cut from its original piping and was welded directly to the TN piping... i dont think i have to worry about flames because it points downward.. 375 is the corrected number.

 

lol i wanted to do the same thing i was keeping my stock exhaust and planning on doing this

 

Ive seen you twice in the past few days, I brighted you on the way to MRC....


His car sounds sick!

 

where were you, on 18? sorry I missed you!
get a sound clip for us.....

 

Yup! I'm running the Borla and overboost to 9.5 - 10 psi. Wonder how the open dump would sounds? Congrat on the TN kit....you will really enjoy it. My setup also net me 370WHP/370 WTQ on a Dyno Dynamic.

 

Congrats!

 

Well, that being said, are you having any overboost issues, Vantage? I'd assume with that open cutout that overboost would definitely show if it was a problem with the design of the system.

 

no overboosting at all. I hit full boost about a little over 9psi than it drops to 8.5psi

 

You brighted me back so how did you miss me?

 

???? must not have been me! there is another yellow Z that drives up and down 18, so it might have been him (or her)

 

Oh lol! Ive seen that car a bunch of times on the way to MRC, we just assumed it was you!

 

Thats funny! the day I was there picking up my car, Julian was on a test drive with it, as I was waiting I saw a Yellow Z comming up Main St, so I thought it was Julian, NOPE it was this other Z!
