Open Exhaust
I ran into a problem away from home and i had to change my 50 Trim turbo back to stock. Problem is that my stock turbo setup does not line up with the 50 Trim downpipe. Can i run open exhaust from the o2 housing. How loud is it? I will only run like this for about two weeks.

Backpressure. Agh. The turbo creates back pressure. It will not hurt your car to run just a dp. Downfalls may be, carbon poisioning, extreme loudness, and backfires can cause under car fires. Drive normal and wear ear plugs.
Me I run 3 inch turbo back pipe only. Nice loud. Loud pipes save lives.

i have a QTP dp with a cut out. i love the car with it open but for.no more than a few minutes. It is crazy load. Be careful....mine shoots flames so a fire is likely if its not directed away from the car.

larger diameter exhaust = better breathing for turbos so I really don't see how backpressure would play a role in being a problem. If you think about it, most drag cars run just a flanged pipe straight off the turbo and that's about just as free if not more than running open o2.
