Exhaust Cutout off of Downpipe

[007jimmy]

Here is my new exhaust cutout off of my downpipe. Is there any downsides to routing it like this? Seems to function fine, spool up is great and added a stock muffler in the rear for quietness.

Its branched off right after the o2 housing and its 3" all the way out the front bumper. Open to suggestions if anyone has any. I must say having sound when i want it is awesome let alone the turbine whistling.
Can get more pics if needed.

Looks like that will do the job! I would put some kind of wrap on your ic piping Just to keep the heat low... Maybe down the road you might get some stress cracks from the vibration around your weld idk. Might be a good idea to have a simple hanger or weld in a gusset. Thats what I would do....

I'd wrap the exhaust. Its gonna get that intercooler pipe hot.

The pipes look close due to the angle of the pic. There is enough room to pull the LICP and the oil filter will not be impossible to take off either. I got heat wrap already and now i just need to fab a plate up where the exhaust exits the bumper.
