Default dumptube question?

Can running your dumptube directly into your downpipe hurt anything??

you're robbing yourself of valuable horsepower anyway while venting it in the engine bay..........you don't want your turbo picking up exhaust do you? you want fresh air.

try to vent it under the car or something.
