I was just wondering if its safe to run an open downpipe.. I just wanted to disconnect the exhaust and run open dp for a little while..

Has anyone done this? Did you notice a performance increase?

Please let me know

thanks

yes its safe, it will be loud but its safe...it can heat up the underside of your car though, so I wouldnt do it on a huge roadtrip or anything, but just to play around, it wont hurt anything.

Yes you will pick up a nice little increase in power :-D

I gained some power, but the MKIV sounds terrible with a open exhaust. Really unpleasant (and VERY lound) sound. I couldn't stand it. It actually was perceived as slower, because I was afraid to give it any gas for fear of the sound.

it sounds like a freakin tractor... and it reaks of smell from inside... makes you sick... if your going to do it, i wouldnt do it for a long time.
