Re: My other little project

Aluminum downpipe is not such a good idea. Ever seen the exhaust gas temps on a turbo car?

One of the new developments is a lot more people running aluminum downpipes these days!

I hope to do the same thing but I might use 1-2 ft of steel for the downpipe section then switch to aluminum.

Looks good, its not that loud out the side but louder than I'd want for a street car.
