[QUOTE=Andy]isnt there alot of easier ways to get into the 12's? :evil7:[/QUOTE]

my car should be a 12sec car with or without the ext. gate - the VF34 and extras take care of that.

[QUOTE=joey89]If you want noise get a custom twin dump design where the internal gate vents to atmo instead of plumbed back into the exhaust!

I dont know why you would want to go throught all the hassels though![/QUOTE]

Sounds fucking shit. Don't waste your time. Just sounds like a constant exhaust leak.

Decent car with big hp and angry gate sounds awesome though.

Yup, gate sounds great, witnessed/heard myself last night :)

fuckin hell, is there a genuine performance increase running an external gate? Or is it about good boost control?

Because if it's about good boost control, an ecu and quality 3-port solinoid can do the same job.

Where is the performance increase? Isn't the external gate used to bleed "excess" exhaust gas in a manner that does not interfere with the exiting exhaust flow out the dump pipe? Is it this laminar flow of exhaust gas and precise boost control that gets the more hp?

If it's about the sound then you have no right to ever sledge anyone running a BOV. :D

I like external gates, just wondering when they really become a necessity.

or anyone with an exhaust that they just got for the boxer rumble but gives no performance increase.... ;)

In the end each to their own, if you want to do something then bloody well do it.....your car, your money. :)

seriously, how does an external gate increase performance?

Results have generally shown that they do...Paticularly @ higher boost levels/cfm..

Well you would think so anyways!

What do you think the advantages would be seriously?
