looking for pictures of the manifold/dump setup from an a-spec 500r kit that has the wastegate plumbed back into the dump pipe. as this is illegal in my town and i am interested in this kit soon i would like to see if it is setup in such a way that i could make it so i could switch between wastegate plumbed back or screamer pipe. hope this makes sense lol

thanks,
Brad.

the manifolds have changed through the years. you'll need to tell us which one you have? the current A-spec or one from a few years back?

i have none, i'm interested in buying one this year sometime and i want to be able to have the option of running it with the wastegate plumbed back into the dump or running a screamer pipe and blocking off where the wastegate pipe enters the dump. hope that clears things up a bit?

You will get better flow from a manifold that is purpose built for one option. A-spec create manifolds with screamers standard, but give the wastegate plumbed into the downpipe as an optional extra.
Unless you're after a track only car...I would go with a plumbed wastegate.

EDIT: I don't know about where you are located. But in the UK, you would never get on to a track with a dumped wastegate due to noise restrictions.

^^Wow. I like that version better than mine. I have one from 2 years ago and the WG faces straight down. The pic of the one sean posted will be a cake to install.

And 1+ to Ceylon. I would recommend a plumbed WG. Open WG's are crazy loud, if you drive it on the street don't go open WG.
