didnt hear the open dump much.. vids dont do justice though.. usually its more obvious on a dyno pull than a drive by vid

enjoithis 03-17-2009 06:58 PM

lol you can tell from the sound of the turbine as it spools down

Ace83 03-17-2009 07:02 PM

I drove around for about 3-4 months with open downpipe. Does sound very beastly like that. The exhaust fumes seep back into the cabin though, that's the only downside to it.

It's incredible worse when you make a mistake like I did. I never set the ECU firewall grommet back in place so the hole was wide open, which just so happens to be right be the A/C fan. So thinking I was helping the problem I set the a/c to recirc, which made it even worse. It just pumped exhaust fume smell throughout the car.

yeah, great sound though, but fumes = light headed and naseous.
