ummmm....it doesn't. It is a shorty exhaust. Here are a few more pictures. Please take in mind that the exhaust is really about 4" off the ground. For some reason in the picture it makes it look like to it less. If the exhaust is too loud I will add more to it later. I don't really want to go over the axle though.


I'm still undecided as to what I'm going to do. I want it to look clean, but I'm worried about a 3" pipe rubbing, grinding, possibly breaking off if bouncing at speed, etc. Hehe.

I did not want to go with 3" over the axle. And if I ever lowered the car then I would have even less room to work with. Even if it is not too loud I am going to have it take to a muffler shop and have them bring it up a litle. I have about 2-3" above the muffler. I left the stock rear muffler on the car so that there was still exhaust on the car.

You know neither can I. There has been so much garbage going around about this turbo. I want to see what it is like. I have heard from a bunch of people though that the turbo has more torgue than usual. I think that I am going to make a video of my dyno rund once I get it there.

My Standalone will be Microtech LTX-8. I have the 3 bar map sensor, bosch coils and laptop adapter software. The turbo is an AF61R, It has a T4 flange, Small Q trim turbine 1.0, Compressor is a 61mm. Fuel injectors are 850cc Primaries 1600cc Secondaries. Should be good up until a little over 600 I assume. I will not hit over 520 without some serious porting and high boost levels.



I hope the car is fun to drive. We will see. Greatest thing about a turbo is the ability to turn the boost down with the turn of a wrist.

Ok, a little update. I just recieved and email from him with some pictures. Just thought that I would share.



He has a really sweet datsun 510 with a subercharged 13b. I think that one of the pictures has it in the background.

So is he wiring the ecu up for you, and then tuning it?

Yup, that is right. I could probably do the wiring myself but he gave me a deal that I could not refuse. Plus he does flawless work!
