Whats limiting you on size for your dump pipe? Room?

The bigger you can go the better.

Free power in that alone.

Yep, had to go down from 5" to 4".

Fair enough. 4inch is still good.

5 inch would have been ideal..

Should still do the job:)

this is awesome...

what sort of port does this car have, ive looked through the thread and cant find it

edit no problems, just looked at the broken plate properly and see its a street port, good news for me then as im doing the same :)

IF your still worried about spooling, My brother's FD runs a completely stock "unopened" motor and has no problems spooling..

finally i could work on my car! started on the ic setup..

modified the ic..

Vband and wiggins clamps.. Awesome.. I plan to upgrade to them soon..

you should! they are working great, a pita to weld on though since the flanges are made from some crap aluminum... they are the cheaper pegasus ones, you can find them on ebay...

finished the piping today...
