Sorry. Uhhhh....yea I guess. Wrap it tight kinda like you would for an ankle wrap. Starting and layering over it, stretching, pulling tight, wraping down on an angle a little further down on the downpipe, repeat. Hose clamps on the ends I guess. I never did it, but it sounds savvy. Good luck and post in General Disscussion when it's done with some numbers. A Hyundai.....HMT has expanded.

I have an Acura Legend and dont have enough room for the dowpipe under the tranny so I am gonna just dump it out in front of the front wheel. Maybe you could do something similar.

Is that manifold off of the scoupe turbo? I have the same engine in my winter beater na scoupe.

yea its the turbo scoupe manifold, the scoupes use the same 1.5L alpha motors, the turbo scoupe uses a t15 oil/water cooled around 115 hp at like 5 psi with oil sqirter pistons but the compression sucks .
