Well, my new turbo on my RB20 doesn't allow me to use the stock elbow and DP. So, should I go the extra mile and divorce the wastegate and add a screamer pipe, or have it all run out a 2.5 inch pipe?

And no TMS's mad screamer mod.

BTW I'm not new, I lost my old account PW.

Well, I for one now advocate the screamer, as I am the owner of one.

By the way, TMS's screamer is now back to normal. It's on my car, venting down as it was new.

Read my other thred and you can see.

Sil240... why would you recommend a non-divorced wastegate tube? Do you not realize how much better a divorced tube is than that v band adapter you posted?

Oh I def know that a divorced WG is better.But This is the next best tihng.I live in FL so there is NO emissions test. (The 1 good thing about FL)But there's tons of cops around.Been down here 1 year and been pulled 3 times in a stock brown altima.So a import (ricer car) down here will a LOUD *** exhaust all the time would bring LOTS of attention to me.

With that I have a better than regular WG plus when I want I can open up the exhaust right off the Downpipe, and I can put silencers in my Dual N1's for cruising around.
