Nice to see you're no longer driving the beretta, beretta!  

BTW you should consider ceramic coating your downpipe and manifold (i.e. JetHot) so you don't have to mess w/ the header wrap.  Nice setup!  :wink:

hehe yea looks like it ends near your driver side wheel somewhere, so i'm guessing you didn't route it back to the exhaust? and it it sorta loud? with have an extra form of exhuast beind dumped awfully early?

I just wrapped everything on monday, and I didnt want to wrap the manifold because I have a feeling it might enduce cracking by keeping in all the heat. I think i am going to cut up a sheet metal heat sheild.

As for the dumptube, I had a buddy weld it up real quick. Before it was just a short dump. I got some homedepot electrical conduit and had it welded so it doesnt come near my oil pan which was my biggest concern. I might have to get it redone if I decide to put my a/c back in. Summer is about half over and I am still debating about that.

As for the noise, once the WG opens it sounds pretty badass. It sounds even more badass when I have the cutout open.

It would be super quiet if I put a filter on the turbo, got a shitty bosch bov, and routed the dumptube back into the catback (which is only 2.25").

yea not so concerned about the bov sound, just the loud exhaust sound is a pet peeve...but besides the turbo spooling noise/bov...i mean is it possible to have a quiet exhaust turbo setup..
