Well this has been something i've wanted to know for awhile ever since i was looking in a car mag the other day. And i dont mind asking cos this thread has been getting abit boring lately, so thought i'd put up a question to ask you all... :roll:

Now i know a screamer pipe has something to do with the wastegate, but here's my question/s :P

How loud is a screamer pipe..? :shock:
I doubt there legal, but are they..? :?
Does it give alot of extra performance, or just abit..? :twisted:
Does a screamer just give gasses another fun way of leaving the engine bay..?
Is it better to have an internal or external wastegate...? :?:

Final question, could i scare old people off the road with one...? :lol:

Yes my questions are serious, just the last one for laugh's lol.

Thanks for any help! :wink:

Screamer pipes does not offer the least bit of performance increase they are only a thing silly people use to attract attention.
It is very loud and will annoy the hell out of you after about five minutes unless you are a 18 yo w4nk3r. ok? :wink:

internal or external wastegate depends on the turbo you're getting, some have internal others are made for external.
