        Looks awesome. At least now I don't worry about you scraping off your turbo hitting a speed bump. I like the idea of rerouting you "exhaust filter".

            Ha ha, that thing really looks angry in that last pic. Definitely if you can figure out how to hide the filter, that would be mad stealthy. :notworthy:

                  You're a freaking genius. Awesome set up, the black paint job makes it almost invisible. Are you able to drive in the rain? How safe is the turbo from thieves?

                      It is really quiet. I live in florida and it floods almost everyday, and I've only choked it once in door deep water. And I've thought about thieves, and if they had a sawzall anythings possible. Otherwise it would take 5 tools. And about 45 min. for me and I've had it on and off a few times. And it would be alot harder with the car sitting on the ground with the wheel on.

                              Wouldnt some water get up into the engine causing rust in the cylinders eventually causing the engine to freeze/lock up? i noticed you said that the it floods there alot arent you afraid to drive it through the water couldnt a hydrostatic lock happen busting the cylinders and bending rods?

                                It has hydro locked 1 time but it started to bog ,so I stopped and pulled a coupler off under the hood. Then I revved it up and all the water blew out and I was on my way.
