Thread: Exhaust flange

  1. #1

    Default Exhaust flange

    Hi everyone I was wanting to do a dump in the cx before I get a tune. Does anyone know were I can buy the flange that comes off the turbo?

    Also after I fit it will I be able to drive to the tuner with all the boost cut probs everyone gets or will i need to tow?

    I guess you mean a dump pipe (DP) (and not just a dump, for which a loo would be more appropriate! ;-) If you get a DP it will have the turbo outlet flange as part of it. I'd recommend the CP_e DP. You can see a photo of it on MPS Garage' website. I don't know if it is different at the outlet end to that on the MPS6. Ask MPSG.

    It's not boost cut problems some people get (that I am aware of) but CELs. It shouldn't throw up CELs anyway. Disconnect the battery before attempting the install and remove the O2 sensors not just from the exhaust (carefully and using the correct socket) and also from the two inside connectors - it saves twisting the wires.

    As I said at Willowbank. I have the DP flanges coming in approx 2 weeks.

    Making and fitting the DP won't have any issues with boost or CELs. It's only when you don't have the cat, or position the O2 in the wrong spot, you can get a CEL.

    Tell old mate (I forgot his name, he only said "hello"on Friday) to give me a PM and I'll run through what and where it all needs to go.

    You are northside? Is he southside?

    I have this type? Or are you after a single opening type?
