    Default Open Downpipe Routes

    ok so right now im just running maybe 1 foot of downpipe off the turbo straight to the ground. well im getting tired of the fumes getting inside my car and under the hood so im wanting to re-route the downpipe. i still have a/c so the the hotside is on the driverside. i was thinking of running it out the front bumper in front of the tire, but idk. so guys help me out, give me some ideas. pics. will be appreciated !

    Out the front bumper would work, but people will think you make crazy power (600+) because it's more of a racer thing. I would run it back to right passed the oil pan and put a turn down on it. maybe cost you $50 for everything, unless you weld it yourself.

    Kinda like this, but under the car...

    I'm running a full straight pipe 3" but I'm going to be adding an electric cutout at some point.
