The sound alone is worth it. Let alone the gains. I did not do a before and after dyno, however my butt dyno seems to be very accurate and it definitely felt better!
Call me crazy, but isn't the purpose of a dump tube to route the exhaust gasses from the wastegate out to the atmosphere individually? It looks to me as if that dump tube is coming out of the main passage out of the turbine housing rather than the wastegate passage.

Umm the main passage is the side with the 02 bung welded to it....that set up is correct...except in this case the side from the wastegate to the main passage wasnt welded shut which i belive in Al's case its seperate...

No, it was welded shut so both passages are 100% separate.

Thankfully we have some volunteers lined up who are going to come in for a free dyno testing offer and then we will have some A - B tests

I am hoping that it makes more than just noise
