as i said, its gambling with the price of an engine rebuild and its the owners decision at the end of the day.

Flanges are the bits that really bump up the price, if we can't get it off the shelf we have to get it cut, cost $80 for the one for the Y pipe on my twin turbos. chances are something is out there for the CT26, I'll find out asap.

If we have to get something cut custom, and if more than one person wants one, it will probably bring the price down, as a lot of the cost is in the setup of the water cutter and they have a minimum charge. If you have a GT-T and want a dump pipe for factory exhaust, send me a PM and I might be able to make a couple at a time for a better price.

Are you talking about for the CT26 or the CT15b?

Stock comes with a CT15b which is supposed to be better than a CT26 so i have heard. Just that i looked at the exhaust part of the turbo and it seems quite big compared to others where the dump pipe fits.

Yeah he told me there were a few small leaks, hopefully he'll sort it all for you tonight.

If it's still loud after its all fixed up and you get sick of it/pulled over/whatever reason let us know and we can put another muffler in there to shut it up.
