Screamer Pipes

4GTuner

Help Support 4GTuner:

cordia has a screamer (bought it that way), but will be plumbing it back. Would rather avoid the fines. Sounds like a jet through tunnels but :p ... possibly also due to the massive intake...
 
I had a screamer dump in my car and was stopped by Knox TMU awhile back. Was given a full EPA letter, but they only pinged me for atmo bov, & boost controller.

It's actually pretty difficult to spot a screamer dump in our cars. Unless you're running a big f-off external gate.. LOL
 
I don't have a scramer anymore, (Did have and loved it, 9k and sreaming of tits)
but before i managed to ventilate my block, i got pulled over and now have to front a DECC approved inspection station for an Emissions compliance check. Anyone NSW boys know what this entails? The cops didn't even bother to really look at the car or the engineers report, and because the report is older then 3 years they've sent me for this.

Cheers, Sean

P.s, Didn't mean to hi-jack the thread, but thought it was close to applicable.

cheers for that info Sean - didnt know about the 3 year thing with the engineers... thats a costly experience i thought i only had to pay once

hmmm emmissions test... thats poo... some places are harder than others to pass... i hope they didnt send you to granville..
 
I'll find out in the next few weeks, apparently this is an emissions compliance check, whatever that entails, I've been told if anything is modified they'll send me for an emissions test, which from the sounds of it may be easier to pass, and save me changing all my gear out back to standard, intake, cooler, ex mani, turbo, dump, everything. But EVO-00X Passed withsimilar mods to me, so it might be standard cams back into a built motor, leave all my other mods on, take the test and get it sorted once and for all.

Work it all out when my new motor is finished and will keep ya'll updated.

That'll make small children cry for days and the elderly collapse from heart failure when that goes off!
 
You VIC guys might want to read this....

If you think getting a $524 DECC fine AND a defect notice for a loud exhaust is one thing, imagine how much they'll fine you when you purposely vent unprocessed exhaust gasses into the atmosphere via a screamer pipe. (no cat converter can be up to a $10,000 fine)
Just read the tester programm & max fine $257,642.00 How do they come up with such odd numbers??????????????

CPI (consumer price index) means a small % is added annually, hence the bizzarro figures ;)


seems pretty random....lol

I think that car is from the UK from memory

but I would love to hear it

looks like NZ trick haha - cool if it spits flames too haha :ph34r:
 
not purposely looking to making screamers legal... but, do you think there would be less recourse if it had a cat and a muffler? could you use "barina" spec exhausting to "leagalise" it..

i suppose it would take away from the purpose of them, the noise and flow.

hmmmm... i do know that we have to exit the exhaust more then 300mm past the last passanger opening, (IIRC)
 
I'd much rather have a nice quiet sleeper than a "look at me I'm a dickhead" car.
Ok, a nice quiet sleeper car with switchable antilag then ;)
 
I know its an old post but i thought i would post up a pic of my screamer pipe...
