hi josh. next week my friend is doing three 1kz dump pipes. They will be for a KZN 130 Surf and two kzn185 surfs. if you would like , we could make one for you, and you could test fit it to your ute. If it doesn't fit then simply return it for full refund.
Unless you are in Manawatu, in which case he can custom make one for you on the ute.

Nathan at Kaipoi repowers in chch can do them as well, got one on my KZJ78 with a 2.5" exhaust

[rob-mu]

Tom at TOMSOFFROAD is the man

[Trundle]

I have the flanges pre cut if you wanted to do one yourself for the ct26 turbos

[joshjillings]

i won't be doing one myself, and I'm in auckland if there are some being made up and will fit on my 1kz in my hilux then I'm keen, are they 2.5 or 3??

[BlakeNZ]

[joshjillings]

[BlakeNZ]

Sure thing vvilly, but doesn't Tom do your work? wouldn't want to step on his toes, cos he's awesome! (needless to say i've followed your build thread…)

[BlakeNZ]

Can someone tell me what turbos the 1KZs run? (as someone informed me they came with two differing turbos, is this correct or not?)

[Xr246]

Im keen on a dump pipe as well... In christchurch maybe we can all combine shipping to save some money?

I have a new 2.5 inch exhaust so unsure if i need a 3 inch or 2.5 inch dump pipe

will contact you next week Josh, when we have some available.do you want a flex in it or not?

[joshjillings]

a flex in the dump pipe? sorry what ya mean?

[Xr246]

Can you get a pic of a 2.5 and 3 inch dump pipes and prices?

Cheerrs

[BlakeNZ]

we won't make any 2.5" ones unless requested.
Yes josh. I meant a flexi , but the software somehow changed it to flex. Some people like having a flexi in the exhaust at some point, but many people say you don't need them, firstly because the exhaust just rotates slightly with the twist of the motor, and secondly because the woven wire braided mesh flexi joins collapse to a smaller internal diameter over time, reducing flow. Have seen it many times:(

[joshjillings]

yer got you but i have had my 3" exhaust made and fitted to my vehicle, now I'm just looking to swap out the old dump pipe and replace with a 3 inch.

shown cleary in this vid how restrictive they are

Have a look at a Prado one sometime... even worse dump pipe... has the goose neck. Or should I say strangled goose

[BlakeNZ]

hope to have one for you within a week josh.

[Xr246]

Whats everyone thoughts on a dump pipe size?

I have a 2 and a half inch system

Is it worth going 3 inch dump pipe then back into 2.5 inch system

or just go for a 2.5 inch dump pipe

Cheers

[philux]

the guys that did my 2.5inch exhaust have tuned quite a few 1kzs and well known for it. I asked for a 3inch one and the response was why? running a stock turbo with a chipped or tuned 1kz it makes no difference on the exhaust back pressure, it is the factory airbox that lets them down when your really trying to get the extra hp out of one according to this shop. So 2.5 inch it was and all I can say is that IM happy

Apologies to all those who are watching this thread, waiting for some dump pipes or full exhaust systems to come on stream. Neither the KZN185 or the KZN130 "guinea pig" trucks has turned up yet. Sorry. One is being held up by a third party, the other one I'm not sure why. Will let you all know when under way.

[Sheepy]

I'm in Auckland, otherwise you could have my 130...

im in wairarapa, with kzn130 keen to arrange something, pm me if interested. cheers

[uptomynutsinruts]

Would be keen on a 2.5 inch dump pipe for a KZJ78 with the strangled goose set up as previously mentioned haha

[BlakeNZ]

Have PM'd low-key about his 130. but no response.
Today we had the guinea pig KZN185 truck on the hub dyno, for a "before" dyno. It is an intercooled one. Directing the dyno fan onto the top mount intercooler made the results much more repeatable, and dropped the EGT by 100 degrees C.
Our base figure is 118hp at rear hubs at 9 psi. The truck is stock part from a pod filter in a custom made air box. Thanks to forum member Zed.
