throw another curve in the mix. Cutout and ported 02.. Cutouts are claiming 20-30HP when tuned for but anyone tried open dump then cutout..

I have had both 2.5" tubular recirc housing and an O2 dump on my built evo 3. Personally for an everyday driver I prefer the recirc, and the power difference between the two depends on the frame of turbo you are running....On small framed turbos like stock it isn't a huge difference. However if its just a weekend warrior, and you are trying to squeeze every last bit of power. dump works.

My evo 3 is now my weekend warrior as my evo 7 is now my daily. I created my own custom 3" 02 housing since no actually builds that size for the stock sized bolt-on housing. Not only did I want to make as much power as possible, but I also want to scare the retarded *** scooter gang here when I crack the wastegate

Lol.

You know every cop within 3 zip codes is thinking the same thing after he makes his quota off of you cracking your wastegate! Lol

hell yeah. i definitely did. it was epic. first time i got on it, i couldnt stop smiling.
i have the MAP o2 housing...but still on stock turbo...recently i was thinking about whether or not i should keep it...
because from what ive been reading...the dump on the stock turbo isnt helping as much as it would on a bigger turbo...

First. O2 dump FTW. Why do you think aftermarket turbo kits come with external gates? Because it works...

Second. I'm sick of people saying the noise isn't worth the gain. On my car I gained 40hp and who gives a **** about the noise? You only hear the dump when the wastegate opens. So only when you are at full throttle. If you are at full throttle you will get a racing ticket. the cop is not going to worry about an open dump. desides your exhaust is screaming at WOT aswell.

I think it is just rediculous for people to say the noise is to much. I have not heard my dump in 2 months... Why? Beacuse I have not got on my car, just been normal driving and enjoying not having any tickets.

Word!

I have a stock exhaust with a cutout at the back so its nice and quite around time but I can still give people something if I need too without even opening my cut out!

lol, my external wastegate vents through the hood, I wouldn't gripe about just an open dump.
