Default Wastegate dump ??

I have read a lot of opinions on re routing the wastegate dump back int the downpipe. This is my daily and im only after 200 whp and i cant stand the noise of an open dump. Does this setup look like it will be ok. Im tryin to fit all of this in an ef chassis with the stock radiator and this is the best i could come up with. I think the entry angle of the dump is steep enough but im just assuming. Can u guys give me your opinions?







Thanks

looks fine to me, although i think i remember reading that you want it to enter back into the dp at least 18 inches from the turbo, but i could be all wrong about that, but if you are only looking for 200whp you should be fine.

Good luck fitting it in there

looks like that block might have a small oil leak in the front lol. but what problems do you get with running back into the dp as opposed to leaving it open?
