I was going to buy the inividia. But my friend had an HKS in his garage so I bought it for $40 and had the pipe welded on for another $40. Including instalation. Plus its different and its custom and it was cheap in price. Laters Mikal

Correct me if Im wrong but my understanding on the HKS is that it doesnt have a Bellthwouth opening. So it doesnt give much room for the air comming out of the wastegate. The bell mouth did that and the pipe I had done gives enough room now for the wastegate to breath sort of. I think Perrin does there downpipes like that. Laters Mikal

You should have just ran that small pipe off the wastegate to right behind the front passenger side wheel well or something instead of connecting it back to the rest of the exhaust. I bet it would have sounded pretty d@mn cool.

Is there anything to direct the flow to the secondary pipe? I was thinking of doing the same but thought it would be better to have a flange welded to the DP that separated the airflow. This would keep the flows from disturbing each other at the exit of the turbo.
