With all you guys that are on the "list", how may are looking at reciculating the wastegates and how many would like open dump tubes?

Remember open dump tubes = very loud

Open dump tubes will also be cheaper.

Open dump will only be loud if driving hard correct?

Just to get an idea on volume, is it a lot louder than running NA with HFC and CBE at WOT and high RPM?

Running open waste gates is as loud as open headers would be. And, yes it will only be that loud when you are on the boost.

Open waste gates are cool for about a month. Then it gets real tiring. Just recirc them and get a non resonated exhaust. I LOVE the refined sound that comes with recirculated waste gates.

For an 8hp loss, I'd do the recirc.

open all the way for me

bring on the noise

these cars need a little more sound, to quiet for me, and the car should still be quiet when driving out of boost.

I would suggest re-circulate because as mentioned, loud will get old.

The donor car had test pipes, and the 2.5" dual F.I exhaust when it came in. When it left with the turbo kit on it was quieter than when N/A. I would say at idle it would be comparable to stock because the twin scroll does act like a big muffler.

At WOT it is just the right tone IMO, but we all have different tastes. I like the stock look and sound, because I favor the sleeper idea. On the other hand there is the complete opposite side of the spectrum where a customer wants it as loud as possible.
