Work started on the cutout...

[BiGMaC]

OK!  What's involved Mike.... I'm excited!

PM, email,  or text details as you have them of the process, fitment anticipated, time, $$,  and the physical install... location in the car's exhaust, controls, valves, etc.  .....email might be good to see pics of the current model.

Understand you're real busy on the fueling project, work has me busy too... bet we can work something out that fits both our schedules... if it took longer than 2 weeks that's OK.

Nothing yet until Jeremy get's his garage cleared out.
Install is SUPER EASY as far as bolting it in.
You need to order one of these though - no options are required, if you want the solenoid you can purchase it from them for the control scenario.

OK... Just got off the phone to Reid at Sound Performance Racing.... But need to know 3  things.... to order... and a couple for my info

1) Y-pipe stainles weld-on or valve only
2) No flanges... 1 weld-on stainless (where?) or 2
3) can we use the solenoid and Hobbs switch?  ... since they list it as starting to open at 5psi boost I'd like to be able to disable opening from my console... likely in where the autopark switch is)

The "for me" stuff here:   
Finally... Is it adjustable as far as opening pressures?... starts to open pretty low at 5psi  and listed as not fully open until 20PSI boost, ...AND... will the assembled CO flanges be in or behind the DPs?... etc.

TIA

As soon as I get the info (1,2,3 above) I can give Reid my order.

 

[BiGMaC]

Apologies... reading too fast... PM sent does contain a couple of other questions.... when you can. TIA

Valve and solenoid with Hobbs switch ordered from SP Racing.

I am also curious about adjustability of the opening pressure.....

 

[4DRHTRD]

It's a wastegate actuator, if you want to adjust the opening pressure higher just use a simple ball bearing MBC to make it happen. It can't open sooner though.
The only way to get it to open sooner is to see if SPracing can do a lower pressure WGA spring.

Sooner is not what I'm looking for... but to have it start opening about 9-10PSI so that it's not open when just cruising...

To be clear, are you talking about what i've seen called a "manual boost controller" usually used on waste gate valves... basically a valve put in the boost line containing a spring compressing a ceramic ball bearing for the valve seal with a manually screwed down spring tensioner?

 

[4DRHTRD]

Yup, the valve is just a wastegate actuator from a turbo, works the same.

We're now ready for testing, just sent an email to Tom to see if he can let us use his car.
Just need him to come by on a Saturday and drop it for the day.
Once we test and verify fitment etc I will have pricing.

Sweet, my down pipes are lonely...

[4DRHTRD]

I have told Tom the price for him just waiting for him to come down

Does this replace the third cat? Just thinking ahead to my options when emissions testing comes into play. Would these guys pass emissions with just the third cat or are the other two necessary as well? Thanks!

 

[4DRHTRD]

It replaced third cat but never heard of third cat removal causing fail before
Keep the cats on the downpipe that's the key from my understanding

3rd cat delete has no effect on readiness check.  I deleted my 3rd cat and barely notice it

 

[Sinister-CO]

I guess my question is if I remove the cats on the downpipes and only have the third cat on for emissions testing, would I pass?
