ooooorrrrr you could just leave it open and dump it to atmo.
For sure! In fact I did that for a while, but I wasn't a fan. I thought sounded sort of like a really loud queef.

Holy cow, I am guessing that is the F41? Does it bolt up to both pipes sans adapters?
Yep, it came with flanges and hardware for about $400 from ATP turbo. I actually ordered the F40 so I was pleasantly surprised when the F41 showed up and turned out to be a bolt-on solution with its revised bolt pattern. A 1.5" U-bend from jegs was all I needed to tie the gate back into the exhaust.

I tried to use it with a Greddy Profec B spec II EBC but that gave me too many headaches. Running single port with a Joe P. ball and spring controller works great at low boost but I saw some flutter when I started getting closer to 15psi. I just started experimenting with a black **** in dual port mode.

Bottom line is, I'm not sure why I chose this over the 38mm with adapters from SFR. I think the prices come out more or less the same. I guess it will work better on my 2jz, so maybe it was the right choice =)
