no i didnt get the divorced wastegate dump, infact i kept the whole design very simple. mild steel (cheaper & less prone to cracking than s/s) 2 1/4" pipes instead of 2 1/2 or 2 3/4" for easier fitting and retained a 2 piece design. Had i done it again i would even remove the o2 sensor plate (post dumps) but at the same time have the dumps ceramic coated... i ran outta cash this time.
the divorced wastegate dumps sound great and in theory should not only improve flow but also improve boost control. but unforunately i cannot justify the gains to the extra coin required to fabricate them. i doubt more than a couple of HP would be achieved.
in short yes they are a good idea but no i couldnt afford to have them made.
