solenoid exhaust control
#16
fabricating the pipes for this job won't be a problem, finding the space to duct exhaust directly out will be tough. instead of ducting out of the tail pipes, i might duct it down and out instead... may not look so pretty but will do the job.
Alternatively a "y" shaped joint with a solenoid controlled trap door might work beautifully?
maybe?...
insane enough ?

as along as the wastegates are the "path of less resistance", the exhaust will flow out through them easily.
Trapdoors are bulky and always leak
hence the wastegate idea...

Heres a pic of one of the setups I was talking about that might add fuel to the inspiration for your little project. You can see how the e-cutout is set up.
