Running with open downpipe for a day or two
Just as a hypothetical, if I wanted to do a few shake down runs and had access to a closed course to keep things legit. Would their be a negative to running my with nothing after the downpipe for a day or two. I'll have exhaust fabbed up sometime next week, with a cat, but for now I'd like to make a few runs to check for leaks while idle, and after boost.

I'll have the laptop in the car while running, I'm super excited, the car actually has more low end. I didn't expect that, and I hope it doesn't go away once I get and exhaust system on it.

Driving your car home from Wiley in this weather has to be a challenge, I hate driving my miata when its wet. The addition of boost has to make that much more intresting, and not in a good way.
I drove the car last night, and its really loud, my neighbor told me he could hear it two blocks away. Considering the weather and the noise it will probably stay in the garage until I can take it to get exhaust put on, hopefully this tuesday. When do you expect to get back to lewisville?
