The HPP kit is a great example of a visible recirculated kit.

HPP kit is made by Pro Turbo Kits in the ex owner garage... The kit suck's cuz the manifolds crack And that their coustumer service suck's more....

Anyone want to post some vids to go along with what they are running rather it be open or recirculated? Some might find it helpful to hear a comparison of the two. Cheers!

]WOW, sorry to hear that. I think the biggest problem with both of them turbo kit wise is no support for the pipes. We just put together a kit for the guy you sold your old 61's to and we made some heavy duty mounts off the timing cover to keep the pipes from cracking. Both of the kits are wayyy overpriced for having problems like they do!
I agree!

Its not hard to figure out, unmuffled exhaust sounds like asshole.  Having it plumbed into the exhaust makes you hear more sweet sounds of a turbo spooling.  Having it open, the nasty sound will drown out that good sound of the turbo.

IMO the best way is to just make a muffler for the WG and have that go to atmosphere.  I did that and couldn't be happier.  Sounds as quiet as could be and no lose in HP.

HPP is a Pro Turbo Kit.
I use to have one.
The manifolds crak and the intake crack as well.

X2...

I HAVE SEEN A FEW CRACKED HEADERS FROM THEM...

and the customer service is CRAP... i mean horrible... you can get custom built setup for the price you pay those hacks to do one...

then they will always have a excuse why its taking to long or why something broke.. its always someone elses fault not theirs...

That's exactly what I was thinking of doing. What muffler do you have on it?
