Has anyone tried an ebay T25 Turbo outlet Elbow?
I am looking at downpipe options for my budget turbo build. I will be using begi cast log style manifold with a gt2560R turbo.
My plan so far is to use the Flyin Miata turbo cast turbo outlet elbow and have an exhaust shop fabricate a 3 in dump tube and complete exhaust which would be relatively easy to do. Flyin' Miata : Turbochargers : Parts and upgrades : 1990-05 turbine outlet (downpipe upper section) I am wondering if anyone has tried a sr20 replacement turbo outlet as a budget solution to start a down pipe. See the links bellow for examples. Search: "T25 Turbo Elbow" on ebay for some options here is a 2.5 in with a small portion of seperated gasses S13/S14 SR20/SR20DET ELBOW STAINLESS EXHAUST T25 TURBO MANIFOLD DUMP/DOWN PIPE | eBay Here is a 3 in of unsepperated gasses. CIRCUIT SPORTS 3" Stainless Turbo Elbow S13 S14 S15 SR20DET (RWD) | eBay Or an SR20DET OEM Cast manifold for reliability? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nissan-OEM-S...sories&vxp=mtr please share your :2cents: on this idea |
Should work on a street car based on seeing these used on other cars with decent results.
Downpipe gets nowhere near as hot as a mani, especially with a free-flowing exhaust, so its not as important to use highest grade steel. Again this is just based on what I've seen with other cars. No personal experience |
Hmm....
Looked at some pictures a little more closely and It looks like this will only work on a bottom mount turbo due to the 5 bolt flange orientation. so i guess scrap that idea and this thread. edit: something like this may work but its shape doesn't looklike it will clear the firewall http://www.ebay.com/itm/GSP-T3-t4-TO...f38e98&vxp=mtr |
On mine I used a 3" 240 eBay down pipe. Just modified it to fit my application. It was like $30 to get it modified.
