dont think they damage the turbo, but they sound fuckin sex

nah, ive heard there mena b good for performance, as the waste gate just dumps straight out the screamer part, and not putting bk into the down pipe, bt not 100% sure just wanted a few different opinions

doubt you would notice any difference over a normal decat on a ct9. Heard lots of sound clips on ct9 aswell and they sound crap imo, but thats personal preferance i guess.

MOT could prove to be a problem depending on the tester. They can class it as an exhaust leak...

alot of people find it hard to seal the gap between the wastegate and the exhaust wheel as they are combined in the housing and not separated like alot of other turbos.

in my opinion its not really worth it on the ct9

yeah i know bout MOT, but you can `bung` it up for it, and aslong as they dont hit full boost, the waste gate shouldnt open, should it??? as far as performance goes,not really that botherd am happy with wot i got, just want it really for the that noise

You can't bung the screamer pipe there's be nowhere for the exhaust gas to go. it would be like the waste gate is shut and it will over boost. Or pop the bung off. Plus i think the mot tester won't except it.

I fitted one to mine. Couldnt get it to seal properly although some people have. Its a horrid noise on a CT-9 and in my personal opinion a waste of time. A decat would be the best best mate. Or get a bigger turbo and a screamer! Lol

when you say cant get it to seal, where do you mean, round the down pipe off the turbo,or where the waste gate is seperated to the down pipe? also if i can get it 2 seal, will it make that screamer noise on a standard ct9 turbo?
