    Hi guys and gals. I bought my 2000my VR4 Legnum about 12 months ago. Fell in love from the time I test drove it. So far mods include carbon fiber wrap to bonnet and roof. Fitted Tien coil overs. Upgraded the exhaust to twin 2.5' dumps into 3' hi flow cat and stainless 3' system. With magna flow s/s mufflers. Upgraded to custom Stainless polished hard pipe kit. I done all fabrication work myself. 255lph wal bro fuel pump and boost T running 13 psi. Enough with chit chat and now some pics.

    Hey guys bit of an update I've upgraded the front turbo feed pipe to 2.5' stainless steel can't really see it when installed as it hides pretty good so only polished what u would see. So took the pics after I fabd it up.





    And another cause its a good shot

    Do the dumps actually make a significant difference? It seems a shame to go to all that trouble without adding bigger tubs too.

    Haven't fitted first set. Will have back to back dyno runs to prove they are worthwhile. First set isn't goin on my car. Going on a tuners car. The original rear dump had a 40 mm bottleneck so they will make a big difference. Even if they don't increase total hp figures it will be the on road response that can't be shown on a dyno. The on/off throttle spool times will drastically reduce. Not to mention we expect earlier full boost vs rpm and I reckon the turbos will actually hold full boost further into the 6>7 k redline area. I have seen good results on cars that have better stock dumps that have been improved, 5>15kw and 30>40 nm on the lower rev ranges that carries longer in the rpm range.

    I think it will make a big improvement trotty, I picked up 13kw and 42nm in the evo with a bigger dump pipe, and it spools quicker and harder, amd sounds amazing too.
    This is an even bigger improvement in flow then the evo dump was over standar so I have faith it will make a good deal of difference
