Is yours setup like that?

For some reason....everytime I think "Hey...it would be cool to do that"......you show me a picture under your hood.

First Class Setup Dyltone.....simply first class.

I had a local muffler shop cut the down pipe right after the turbo and change it to 3" straight down to under the pan and straight back to the rest of the exhaust. They ran the wasetegate dump tube down right behind the downpipe and in to the top of the pipe that goes back to the rest of the exhaust. I'd like to show you a picture, but it's actually being coated. Kenny may be able to take a picture for you, if he got it back yet. It's not super pretty because it was built on the car, they didn't want to take the downpipe off the turbo.

The entire exhaust was re-done to 3" mandrel bent tube with 1 resonator (texas turbo) and no muffler.

The new set up sounds 1000% better than the old 2.5" mandrel set up with the open wastegate. I can hear my BOV now and the car is actually quieter than it was stock with a meaner tone.

Oh and thanks for the compliment, it means a lot!
