Well the horrificly loud wastegate had to go. I knew that before i even put the turbo on.
Towed the tahoe home and it got old fast!!

Went by the exhaust shop and showed the guy what i was plannin on doin. 2 min he had the 1.75" pipe bent and got a peice of 2" and made me a turn down. He threw in a muffler for free. I got out of there for $20.

Welded it on tonight and used a stock hanger on the center support cross member.

Lets just say this thing is silly quiet!!
5.2# boost and the turbo is barely workin so you can hear the compressor a lil.
Perfect, just what i wanted.

 

Dont mind all the cow crap. Got a lil crazy on the speed thru the pasture last weekend.

 

Hmmmm so your wastegate is on the drivers side? I thought KB built his kits where wastegate was on the passenger side between the downpipe and crossover?

 

He does. I told him not to worry bout that. Just send me the peice pipe fishmouthed amd a flange. I didnt wanna have boost problems or tryin to choke out that stock catback. So this worked out great and plenty room to spare.
Wrapped it good since it goes by the trans, fuel lines, trans harness and shifter cable.
And only time it heats up is when its in boost and wastegate opens. Cools off just as fast as it heats up.

 

Interesting. I have never seen it that way

 

Me either

 

Lmao that wg exhaust pipe is hysterical

 

Its quiet as a stock truck. Well with a lil whistle sound effect.

 

Gotta love those "quiet" trucks.

 

I like it..

Ill put a cutout on it after i get the bigger injectors, right now the 8.1 marine in jectors are at 93%..
