it is a stock gsr engine, Cimburke23 is the owner. he had the swap with a different (not-so-liked bt H-T) manifold. he put down like 252whp at 6psi (it is in his sig). and i think u guys might have missed the PS at the bottom. he put it on that way for ***** and giggles. this was the former exhaust he had on the del slo with this engine and turbo. but he cut it off and with the drag mani he had to flip the turbo around the other way so it would clear the block. here is a link to the del slo when it had the gsr in it. GSR TURBO DEL SLO

that O2 sensor's kinda far away from the outlet of the turbo. Did that work ok for your setup? i was running that same way with open downpipe on my sol, and it threw and O2 code and wouldn't read right.

But im sure w/a full exhaust it'd be diff. Just kinda curious

That has got to be the dumbest thing ive ever seen. Waste of wire, gas, and my time for clicking on, and now replying to this post. So why would you even waste your time? Also I would put money on it that the placement of the o2 sensor will give you tampered results because the o2 is about 2 inches from the end of the pipe, not to mention you would be forcing clean air into the pipe

That kind of exhaust will never help. What would pushing air into the exhaust do other than **** the o2 reading up?

Are you missing the fact that the beetle's with that exhaust have the engine in the back??? Your making it harder for the motor to push the exhaust out at high speed, and all the fresh air that would be pushed in there would change the O2 reading.. good luck.
