i'm curious why you routed the wastegate exhaust with the rest of the exhaust? since the car looks to obviously be a race only car, why bother?

Thanks guys!

The WG dumps back in mainly because it was easier.... this way it wasnt necessary to fab up a entire seperate dump tube... Also for clenliness and space reasons...

however that was a decision that could have gone either way....

Thanks again!

the car is actually very basic, its a stock b16a. Hondata, turbo(obviously) and the car is gutted with FG doors, hatch and front end, all lexan windows, etc.
I am hoping to run 11's this year... which is a pretty realistic goal.

Hot wheelz-
The PWR Air/Liquid will be much more efficient than a front mount in a drag scenario... because I'll run ice water, so I'll end up with a lower than ambient intake temp.
