Yep... I wouldnt DD a turbo car right outta the down pipe. But I would run full exhaust out the back and then dump it at the track. Even with full exhaust with no mufflers is restictive to the point to were a dump is beneficial. I'll ask, have you run a dump or owned a turbo car? I have and have real results. And building another Ive lost my mind

I hear what your saying....I'm just talking about the cost and hassle...no I've never "owned" a turbo car and since I've given up on cars for a while I like to play with others cars. See the link in my other post.
