200sx-Starlet-Jay Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 hi all.. anyone on here run a screamer on there GT/Glanza? realy like the sound of an ext wastegate, but as im not realy running enought boost to warant on, and the wastegate on my hybrid is all ready ported to a large size there is no need. but still after that noise they make.. so , if anyone has one, does it sound similar to one? or did it sound different to what you had hoped for?even beter, anyone got any vids of theres. can only see 2 on youtube lol.sorry if this is wrong section, no idea where this would go.Jay Quote
Driver Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 i had one on my ct9 setup and i loved it it sounds similar but higher pitched when on boost but most sound tractorish off boost (wicked ep /nightpager etc) race-tech to a good one that doesnt blow and im currently selling a nightpager that ricky from racetech has played with so shouldnt blow. (pm me if interested)but i loved the sound, although some peopl dont like it Quote
Steve GT Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 love them im saving up and off down the road to ricky to see if he'll do me a good one lol heared one a few months ago and it sounds fooking awesome lol Quote
DavidAshton Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 All personal opinion really, i think a ct9 / hybrid external wastegate sounds mint, proper brutal but its each to their own at the end of the day. Quote
Guest Enzo Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 All personal opinion really, i think a ct9 / hybrid external wastegate sounds mint, proper brutal but its each to their own at the end of the day.i agree totaly, Quote
200sx-Starlet-Jay Posted September 22, 2009 Author Posted September 22, 2009 ok ok..i originaly wanted an external wastegate, asi totaly agree about the noise they make.. but as i have the HKS actuator and internal wastegate on a GT spec hybrid, i just wondered would it be cheaper and get similar effects with just a screamer pipe. theres a gt 5 round here and it has one, sounds complete wank, but there is also a civic turbo conversion with an internal wastegate and a screamer and it sounds decent.ok so exactly what is needed to get an external waste set up, and what price am i lookin at for it all roughly?will it be ok to do it on a ct9 hybrid or is it not worth it?Jay Quote
Sparky Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Weld the internal wastegate up, new manifold with external wastegate and screamer pipe Quote
200sx-Starlet-Jay Posted September 22, 2009 Author Posted September 22, 2009 Weld the internal wastegate up, new manifold with external wastegate and screamer pipethort it was that easy lol. however, no idea what kits are available.. anyone recomend some? Quote
RobSR Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Wepr makes a kit .. However you could just have your original one modfied.. Quote
200sx-Starlet-Jay Posted September 22, 2009 Author Posted September 22, 2009 Wepr makes a kit .. However you could just have your original one modfied..its not realy the best manifoild anyway... how do you go about modifiying the original one? which bit does it go on? Quote
RobSR Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 You'd have to have a hole cut in the collector to weld another pipe on.. Then bolt the gate onto the end of that.. Quote
Driver Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 pm ricky from racetech prop end up paying a little more but will be mega reliable Quote

Miller_Ep91 Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 yeah mate it is and ewg type , so you would need to buy and ewg and weld up you penny flap on the turboare post up a pic of mine when i get it on Quote
200sx-Starlet-Jay Posted September 23, 2009 Author Posted September 23, 2009 yeah mate it is and ewg type , so you would need to buy and ewg and weld up you penny flap on the turboare post up a pic of mine when i get it on sound.. and just to check, its for a ct9?Jay Quote
Miller_Ep91 Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 is does come with a screamer pipe witch isn't in the pic , it bolts on the other flange of the wastegate and ends to the next to the decat so all the gases go under the car looks like this ... Quote
Miller_Ep91 Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 sound.. and just to check, its for a ct9?Jayyeah for ct9 mate , kelly other on tgtt made 180bhp on this on a standard turbo in her auto gt, Quote
200sx-Starlet-Jay Posted September 23, 2009 Author Posted September 23, 2009 yeah for ct9 mate , kelly other on tgtt made 180bhp on this on a standard turbo in her auto gt,bang on!rite ok, so exactly what am i gunna need then..ive got at the moment, aftermarket SS mani, Hybrid ct9, HKS actuator, Blitz decat pipe, and soon will have a Blitz dual SBC boost controller. would be on a greddy emanage blue.if i was to sell my stainless mani, HKS actuator, and blitz ebc. and replace for a WEPR mani, and a manual boost controller would this be all i need ( other than the EGW its self ) and weld the penny flap shut?sorry if i make no sense, ive got a bit lost with it all. you do need some kind of boost control i take it with the EGW? want to run 1.1-1.2 bar?Jay Quote
BoostJunkie Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 You can go bush mechanic like i've done with mine , i have an autobahn mani ( i can hear you all going lol) and my ext gate fabricated to the top with a screamer coming off that, will get pics to show you later (and before anyone starts its a temporary setup until i get more cash flowing but it will work and do its job in the meantime, probs need to reweld the mani after a few months but the things you need to do lol) but with regards to a screamer on an internally gated ct9 it will be the same as an ext gate the actuator will only open at the set boost pressure to release excess boost pressure down the screamer, giving same effect.

200sx-Starlet-Jay Posted September 23, 2009 Author Posted September 23, 2009 yeah ive got a toyo sports one and while it would be fine as is, if im going ext gate, then i will jus get one thats ready made.Sound good on ures?! Quote
Miller_Ep91 Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 Dont get rid of the blits ebc , you will need that on the ewg, you can also get diffrent pressure rated springs for the wastegate . For better boost control. Quote
BoostJunkie Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 Dont get rid of the blits ebc , you will need that on the ewg, you can also get diffrent pressure rated springs for the wastegate . For better boost control.exactly you get diff rated springs from ebay to open at set lowest pressure you want then use the ebc to control boost above that. Quote
DavidAshton Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 All of the above seems a giant ball ache if you just want the sound, get a decat / screamer to run with the internal gate and it will sound just as good, save you a fortune too, external wastegate is only really going to give you better boost control which is overkill in my opinion for a ct9.Swap you decat for one of these and you will be sorted.

DavidAshton Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 THe problem with those David is that they sound like your exhaust is blowing on idle. Which the plod won't take kindly too.I believe Ricky's are made a lot better than nightpager and are leak free to stop blowing on idle. Quote
