Yes it is damn loud! And has a big lump like an 8 with the gsc cams It's 5" straight off the turbo, all thinwall stainless and only the 1 muffler at the end so it gets pretty droney Sounds awesome tho and has helped the whole setup ALOT! This turbo comes on faster than my old 76gts with .96 and 1.15 housings and this is a 1.28rear gt45 basically

Cool, i looked up and found the Burns website..going to get a 4 inch fart cannon for the 31, but will probally run another 4 inch straight through aswell..i like noise its the resonance drone that kills me.. 5 inch sounds overkill, haha cheers darren

Yeah 5" is overkill Don't need bigger than 4" till over 1400whp according to full race But I couldn't have built a 4" system for the price I paid for the 5"

Both gate are screamers ---------- Post added 24-04-12 at 20:42 ---------- The 1400whp dyno jet figure would have to be screamers aswell I'd say ---------- Post added 24-04-12 at 21:36 ---------- Bit of a set back 2day but hopefully have it sorted by 2moro

Well another set back today Turns out the piece of metal in the head was a broken piece of valve guide And some bent valve in number 6 aswell Lucky I have a spare head for the valves but going to need new guides Hopefully it will be all sorted in the next couple days But on another note, went and bought 105lts of united e85 Got it home and tested it Obviously tested on the high side but it settled at 94% ethanol! Should work very well with 35-40lb Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
