Steed speed with external gate port

 

[Fatheadracing]

Sorry new to this lol, what do you mean by that? Is it a diff manifold?

 

[khaoskustoms]

Yes a steed speed is a different manifold that is made out of steel. It makes it very easy to cut, drill and weld too. They also come with wastegate ports cnc'd into them already.

Nice, now what is the benefit of going to external gate? And would I need 2 or just 1?

 

[khaoskustoms]

you would need an external gate when your internal's can't flow enough to keep your exhaust pressures in check. Dual gates are generally only needed if your spraying nitrous.

Well it seems fine I think, it doesn't run too hot, but I am about to put a 100 shot on it

Was your Dakota for sale in waterford mi by chance??

 

[khaoskustoms]

My Dakota has never been for sale lol. At least not by me since I have seen a craigslist add for somewhere stateside listing it forsale.

We also offer a universal wastegate kit that will bolt directly to the Steed manifold or welded in any pipe with the supplied flange. Check it out!
