Kinda spendy, but a neat idea!

Found this on a website selling model A parts...

Neat idea! Something similar could be cobbled together with a TB and a WG can, maybe one for a mitsu because the open at like 4psi.

Just thought Id share!

Did something similar for a buddies car. Used 2 huge ebay wastegates for cutouts.

Maybe I am missing the point, but where do you vent the exhaust?

Just vent it out right away. works just like a cutout but you have mufflers normal driving and then cutouts when your in boost.

i prefer the electric cutouts

to me, the biggest reason for an open exhaust is to shorten spool up time. a boost actuated one would only help once your in boost

Its straight thru, unless you mount it on a y pipe.

Yeah, i think its implied that you have to Y it into the exhaust pipe.

I think with a vac solonid in line you could set it up to "hold" it open with a check valve as soon as it hits boost the first time. A little brake boost action and your cutout would stay open...

here is a cheaper one I found on ebay. I think Im gonna buy one for each car at this price!

Too late I just bought it:D

[shelbymonster]

thats so pricey , im wondering someone building a custom one with a cable actuator , that would be awesome , i beleave this is realy overpriced

[Nemesismachine]

That would get annoying every time you're in boost to have the cutout open, unless you're road racing or something... Like a noisy BOV. Sounds cool, unless you get stuck in traffic. PSSHHHH...PSSHHHHHH...pSSHHH..PSSHHHHHHHH

[Murphy]

electric is so much more practical IMO

Personally I liked driving with an open swingvalve. I only drove it like that for a few days, but it still sounded good.

i went 2 weeks with open sv, i love the turbo noise, but it did was a little loud coming home lat at night. the thing about the garret wastegate accuated cutout is it should only open up around 7 psi, not all the time, so under 7 psi it will be normal exhaust flow, plenty enough psi to get you around town. i wish it was a 4" instead of 3" for my next exhaust system:eyebrows:

Love my McCord Power Plate. I just hit a button to open the cut-out, and hit it again to close it. I keep it closed for daily driving, and run it wide open at the track. :thumb:

there is already a thread on here about it... :)

Ive seen that thread. He used a air ram, and said a WG can wouldnt work, thats why I posted this.

Im going to build one, but not with a TB. Im going to use a CTD EGR valve. They are about 3 1/4"!

[W.P._Turbocars]

Mine from the above thread is still working flawlessly. And is now adjustable with a boost controller. ;)

And for sure the WG can won't work. At least not with the TB I used. (Ford Taurus V6 = 2.5" I.D.) :thumb:
