Default Waste gate dump pipe
Just wondering if anyone has a dump to atmosphere pipe on their waste gate? I ordered one from Lindsey but I'm curious to how loud it's gonna be.

I left mine on for a few months but decided to recirculate it. Its cool an all but draws way too much attention.

Thanks guys. It's louder for sure. Are any of these dump pipes muffled or just straight?

If you want LOUD, dump the whole thing right after the WG ties into the exhaust... I took it off -- it was so loud it literally hurt at WOT...

Mine is a straight pipe right out of the wastegate. It did have a turn down on it though to direct exhaust gas away from the body of the car.

I have it with my setup. I don't find it too bad. If I stomp on it its drowned out by the exhaust anyway

Is there any performance gains from doing this? Is this reducing back preasure and thus reducing torque?

What sort of backpressure do we generally get inside the crossover pipe?
