Dutch term or phrase: uitlaatpijp
Hi,
I am translating this text on turbos.

"Demonteer de uitlaatpijp aan de uitlaatzijde van de turbo, zodat direct toegang is via het uitlaatschoepenrad tot het slakkenhuis van de turbo."

Do you know what Uitlaatpijp in a turbo is?
Thanks a lot,
Francisco

Notes to answerer
Asker: I know that uitlaatpijp is exhaust pipe in the normal context of a car, but I have never seen in related to a turbo. That's why I asked. Maybe it is not the exhaust but a kind of valve??

  -> nice try Dave - most hits are for exhaust pipes of turbo model cars, so quite the old 'apples and pears' I'd say
