I would never stretch to run no bend at all, especially for a long period of time. I would be worried about melting something in there.

 

That can't be good to run open DP. Your talking about right off the turbo NOT the dump pipe off the WG right? Dang man, your neighbors must hate you, not to mention anyone around a 5 mile radius to hear it lol.

the olny bad thing would be the fumes and the soot(sp)

 

I had a friend run open o2 on his talon for like 6 months until he got his exhaust made. All it had was a piece of pipe welded to get the exhaust gas in the right direction. It sounded bad *** and you could hear the turbo spool a mile away.

 

I'm waiting for my MIG welder so I'm running kinda open DP...the exhuast seperated itself off everytime I drive it cause I have some crappy clmaps on there. But it's usually after the flex so it isn't too bad.

 

i've been running open downpipe, it isnt that bad. isnt really that loud either, and when i get on it, doesnt get loud that much as when i ran open header. i do like quieter exhausts though. when i can, im going to just end up finding some pipes, and get the rest of the exhaust together.

i finally got a welder, so it's not too long until i get it together.

 

Open Dp is funny, I ran my turbo for three weeks like that and i made people cringe as i screamed by. I love it how everyone looks at loud cars as they pass
