What's a "Externally venting screamer"?

 

would have thought about a realistic 300bhp

 

a screamer pipe??? instead of going back into the exhaust/turbo system, it vents externally and screams like a f*cker when on boost

 

oh you mean a vta...

depending on injectors maybe 330\330

 

na m8, its not a blow off valve...its actually a pipe thats connected to the turbo and is supposed to vent back into the system...but is venting externally

try some of these...my pc speakers aint workin at the mo so leme know if you get the idea lol

i believe the injectors are 550's m8

 

I'd guess a bit more than 330.

Still not sure the diff between a vta dump valve setup to re circ and a "screamer"?

 

the blower will be the limiting factor in that case, sort yourself out a 20g TD05\6 and you should hit 370...

maybe a screamer has something in the trumpet that makes the 'screaming' noise?

 

My guess 350

 

348 is my guess

 

If it's on standard injectors (440's) and that turbo the max power will be approx 340, but it will all depend on the RR/ambient temp etc.

Thats a brilliant spec, enjoy the car mate, don't worry about the numbers

prince your pm box is full!! where do you get a screamer pipe from think they sound awesome.

 

sorry m8, just got the emails now...you can buy a proper one from ebay etc...or you could have a diy job done...not sure how its done myself but its some pipe that vents back into the turbo/exhaust turbo which instead of going back in is vented to atmosphere (something also to do with the wastegate)

 

btw peeps...do you reckon itll be better if i change the red APS intercooler hardpipes for metal ones??? as i reckon on boost they expand causing more lag???

 

looked on ebay do you have the sellers i'd where you got yours from think it will sound awesome

 

i didnt get mine of ebay m8, it was on the car...my m8 has an awesome one on his rx7, ill have a little word with him 2moro and get full instructions on what to do because he done his one him self...ill pm u bud

 

not my car...but this is what the external wastegate and screamer pipe set up look like on a scoob



hope this helps

 

my car has a vf23 on so would this still be possible

 

An easy 320+ I would have thought, probably around 340bhp (not sure about where the VF29 maxes out)

Who does the mapping at TDI? That's the most important bit in getting the result you want

Screamer pipe comes off the external wastegate.

 

just got my car booked in at POWER ENGINEERING 2day instead for sat 3rd MARCH ...about £52...TDi said £160 for a straight forward power run lol

ill be posting the results
