When my dump tube broke off (no clue how) I was running with no dump tube for a while. Everything in my engine bay just got black. Even my fuel rail and firewall. Besides that just make sure nothing is in its way that can melt

Hahaha, I love the dude, I appreciate his relentless appreciation of anything and everything...guy has an awesome perspective.

In fact, I may have been listening to him the other night just as my dumptube facing the radiator melted a giant hole in the middle of it!

I don't know what you guys smell. I have mine dumping right infront of my left front tire. I never smell anything. Who knows maybe you guys all have smelly cars.

Here is mine with no Dump tube... the waste gate could not fit a dump tube on there because of the manifold beening so close. I had a rev Hard elbow on there with a rev hard manifold. The waste gate just dumped on the head and manifold and made a mess. I had to put the elbow on there so the wastegate want put a dent in the hood. This was on my old setup. Got a new set up BETTER..lol

Depending upon the placement, you could also ruin your radiator after only a few passes. Wait for the dumptube.

If you are desperate, then just make sure you DO NOT hit full boost and you will be OK.
