Nope...they are 2 different pipes.

I only have the downpipe....no dumptube....my wastegate is open, exhaust gas vents into engine bay/atmosphere.

imo best is to get the exhaust gas out of the bay with a dump tube, back to the downpipe if you don't like the sounds and are willing to loose a little flow
