Most of the noise comes from the open wastegate, but that's staying the way it is.


What purpose does a constantly open wastegate serve?

The open wastegate isn't constantly open, it just isn't routed back into his exhaust system, and the exhaust bypassing the turbo goes to the open air.

Was that the exhaust leak you have 13BAce?

I guess I miss TORQUE.
They have kits to put a V8 into a 7. But if you do it, you get banned from this site. :tounge: :newlaugh:

No, I have a leak somewhere on my downpipe. I'll ve making a new downpipe soon. So I'll worry about it later.
