While a screamer pipe is hectic, it's not what I want for a street car. It has a slip fit to the wastegate dump so I can make up another exhaust piece when I want to run a screamer again. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hjtrbo Bronze Donating Members 320 Member For: 14y 2d Posted 04/11/22 11:10 AM Share Posted 04/11/22 11:10 AM Glad you got her locked up. Just some dark humour, if the bell housing sounds like a rattle can ever again in the future, it will be good to see the dowels still taking up the load. Done some more digging. A letter V drill bit comes in close at 9.6mm. NFI where you can get one of those from at a normal price locally. Found a 2 flute carbide bit for $126USD plus shipping. No farken chance that's happening. #reamer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything buttoned up, transfer case service done, E85 topped up and a successful test drive done. It's so much quieter with the screamer plumbed in and the car still hauls ass. Happy days 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put a flexy thing in mine just to make it easier to get on the gate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I have a 2 piece dump the second piece that has the wg provision just slips in and lines up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky they didn't get me down there straight away cos I figured I would go for a quick test drive and the farker was breaking up a bit. Came home, gapped plugs down to 0.4mm, turned boost up, car did what it was supposed to. Haha still waiting for a call but at least I got it sorted before I went down there.
