Thread: Any interest in divorced wastegate O2 housing/downpipe combos?

lol

Matt do you have AC? How many of you other guys have AC? I think these are going to be really nice, but I really don't think these will fit with A/C. I ended up removing my A/C to run the divorced pipe in my car:

Here's a picture that illustrates how close the A/C bracket is to the j-pipe in the rear:



Here's a new picture I took working on my white car, look how close the A/C line is to the j-pipe on the front:



The good news is even if Matt has A/C, you can still test fit it. Here's what I did to test-fit before I decided to yank the A/C. I removed the belt, unbolted the compressor and propped it up out of the way, then removed the bracket:

Any way around it, I'm down. I want another one for my red car that doesn't have A/C anyway. I look forward to seeing it Damian. Thanks for taking this project on.

Yeah, the only conflict with A/C is the dump, not the main section. I just have to see how to route the dump so there is no interference. I still really can't tell from your pics what needs done though. It appears that if I route the wg dump up over the downpipe outlet and down the front that it'd fit.

It's just too hard to tell from the pics.

Matt...the 19th is my blowout Honda Meet at Quaker Steak and Lube, definitely not that day. The best thing I'd say is the 20th, or the following weekend. Call me....412-969-6041 or pm me your number.

Yeah, I can't say it's impossible. It's just super tight in there on all sides. I hope you can make it work. Sorry for being a negative nancy.

The bracket isn't the issue as much as the a/c line in front. If the line can be moved some I think it'll fit. My intention was to bring the dump up over the turbine outlet, then dump in front of the "j" turn. So interference seems like it'll be with the a/c line there. If Matt's car doesn't have it, which I don't think his does, then I'm gonna need some detailed pics to see about it.

This is where the bracket was causing an issue on mine:



If you're able to bring it up and over, that might just work. You would need to route the dump it back toward the crossmember to clear the A/C lines up there, though. That could lead to some issues with intercooler piping, depending on people's setups.

ac is for pussys, espeically on a car thats been built to go fast.

stratton.

swiss, i had a similar downpipe setup with the Vband under the pan and my car bottomed out one night and it put a giant hole in my upper pan. that was due to poor planning and a super slammed car with blown shocks, but just letting you know.

I'm going fast and cool..
