I did wonder what a 4 exit exhaust would look like - like the pagani Zonda - I guess this is as close as it gets for now.
Is that a special adapter for a supertrapp incase you need to keep the noise down?

A friend who testing his 5 axis CNC machine made it for me. He made 3 exit also, the inside look like in the picture.  its free so I'll try.
There is no adapter,  i'm sure it will be a loud mouth. Hoping turbo will cut down the sound at idle. I don't care at WOT. I'm probably at the highway by then. Less chances of being stop.

what turbo are you going for.

if you can get a sidewinder manifold built instead of a log you will get alot of gains

I used a hybrid Garrett Turbo -- .63 a/r at the turbine & T04E .60 at the compressor.
I had a K20 engine a few years back using slug manifold, I never seen any of my friend (who installed  other manifold) gets any better horsepower.

Atom is too restricted (not enough room) & I like a clean install.

I spent my winter in Florida and this project was in the back burner.  Now that I'm back in the Northeast (summertime), I hurried and finished my project before it gets cold again....
Car started in the first crank
I will map it and let you know the outcome.

Tidy install. Good job! :tu:

I am not personally a massive fan of the quad tail pipe, but each to their own!

It'll be interesting to see what power you get after mapping.
Atom 4, Clio v6, & some other cars obviously.

Now if i was going to do a build - it would have to be ultra tidy & functional, clean and aesthetically pleasing.
That S2K, ticks all them boxes - exceptional job!!!!
The sidepods look distinctly like the pods on the RCR Nemsis???, not sure i like them but again i dont have to and they have function.
Hope you get your projected figures.

I have no way of installing the turbo intercooler and the oil cooler without having a side pod. I have to do the side pod the best I could to look tidy. I did not drill nor alter the chassis. I used brackets on the pod. I can go back to the original in an hour time.

If for any reason the pod will not suit my liking, I have other option. Take the pod out, move the oil cooler from its original location to the opposite side, install two intercoolers in series - small rectangular intercooler where the oil cooler originally placed and one small intercooler inside the snorkel then down to the intake.
This will cool the charge significantly.

Currently even with pod the intercooler that will fit is small. I supplemented it with AEM methanol alcohol injection. Start spraying pass 8psi of boost.
I just replaced the stock injectors to 1000cc and a higher map sensor. I can't drive the car at this time
I have to map at the dyno.
I will go from here.
