Well if you dont have a dump tube its going to be shooting exhaust fumes right into your engine bay. Why would you not run one?

i'm not but only because the one that came with drag didn't fit with a maxrev + tial setup. however, i just ordered a dump tube from maxrev because i'm tired of smelling fumes

i think i will get one, the only problem is that i am not sure which manifold i'm going to go with. i wonder if the max rev will fit drag and revhard manifolds with 35mm tials?

i dont run one because the drag kit doesnt provide enough room for the prelude set-ups. however, im having one made to flow into my 3" dp, closed loop kicks ***

Zojirushi, I'm surprised you haven't blown your A/C line yet....

As for me, I don't run a dump tube but I have a 90 degree Tube so my wastegate is angled 90 degrees. I like the sound of no dump tubes, sounds like a jet engine

lol, well, i don't run full boost alot. Plus i'm running a mbc, so it doesn't open until full boost.. Maybe thats why my a/c line has lasted.

Oh please, my wg has been dumping on the a/c line and the compressor itself for 4-5 months now.... running at a mere 7psi isen't hurting or dirtying my engine bay at all... and I only have that 90 degree bend.

may want to close the tube, sounds like "farting" more than a jet engine to my ears...
