The dump's in question,

Upload



1st,Try and avoid these as they "DO NOT FIT WITHOUT MODIFYING"

Now! for the unlucky suckers Like me that had bought one and didn't do there research or are happy to give the mod A go,Here is how to modify it to make it fit.

1st pic show's you what was needed to make the studs & nuts fit from the turbo's.This is self explaining when you have these in your hands.

Upload


1st pic of 5 is the total modification on the dump pipe itself,The problem with this dump pipe is it won't clear the engine mount once fitted to the turbo's.Follow yellow,red then blue in that order.

Upload


Pic's 2 to 5 is a more detailed view of what was needed to gain 20mil and clear the engine mount,
2 of 5,How much that was cut out.(keep the cut out pipe to use later)

Upload

3 of 5,Is were the pipe had to go to give you 20mil.(This is were the pipe that was cut out of pic 2 of 5 will go)

Upload

4 of 5,"VERY IMPORTANT" This is what is needed to keep the turbo mounts in the same place before cutting(This saves trying to line it up later)

Upload

5 of 5,Is the final product with 20mil taken out.

Upload


Last pic Is the extender pipe,This "WILL NOT FIT AS WELL" and also will need modification's.
You don't have to fit this if you just want the exhaust guy that you choose to fit his own extender pipe.But If your like me and want the look then just get the exhaust guy to cut and fit it.Please make sure they don't use paper gaskets as they will blow out on the 1st hard drive,Use steal mesh gaskets,

Upload


When the dump pipe is fitted after modifying,Make sure you tighten the second o2 sensor plug as I found out.

Final word is "TALK TO NEIL GRIFFITHS AND LEW RADBOURN FOR DUMP-PIPES" As this will save you the pain.Other than that If you don't mind welding or modifying,Then there is nothing rong with the dump pipe.I am very satisfy'd with the end result and performance.

hehehe yer it sounds like the rear turbo has crapped its self big time.
Well done on the tutorial Jeff
as i have stated before these dumps don't bolt straight up with out mods and it is just pot luck if thay send the correct ones for the soarer from china.
the guy that makes these in china has a set to fit soarers as i made the sample for him
and the mid pipe is just not going to fit with out cutting it to pieces.
