Open exhaust

[benchandler]

Has anyone tried just open exhaust right off the turbo, it might be loud but you would definatly gain some horsepower and quicken spool up times. Kinda ghetto, but why not

You will fry your alternator that way. At least use the O2 housing. Just make sure to repaint the oil pan after the paint burns off so it doesn't rust. And don't take deep breaths when stopped. It'll also raise underhood temps, plus the engine will inhale some exhast, too. Otherwise it's a great idea. NOT!

Dont run open O2 for gods sake, run at the least an open downpipe. I had to for a short ammount of time and it was ungodly loud (sounded like a semi).
