Here is the deal, I couldnt afford for the car to be down 4 weeks while I wait for my turbo to be fixed. I daily drive this car. Simple as that. I tuned it enough that it would run decent n/a. Yes while I wasnt going to blow 100 bucks on a header id only use for a week, i just ran it out the manifold. While the thing is rediculously loud like this, it runs great enough to get me to work and back and to the track and back along with passes down the track. Motor is broken in fully and there is zero issues with it that would make me change my mind. Turbo goes back on tomorrow so yeah, who cares. I do what I love and could honestly give two craps what people think.

All I know is that I had a great time, engine is running awesome, and cant wait to get on it with the turbo on there with this motor. It will be going on the dyno before that happens I gurantee that.

Maybe some of you were under the assumption I had another vehicle to daily drive but I do not. If I did, trust me, the car would have never gone out without a turbo on it.

Still loved getting the "what turbo are you running on there" questions....Interfooler FTW!!!! hahaha

And what that tells me is they really cant tell the difference in sound of an N/A car and a Turbo one. Especially how loud it is. You would hear what sounds like a turbine engine coming at you if the turbo was on there.
