Safe, yes.

Legal and roadworthy, No.

I wouldn't be able to put up with the horrid noise, but that's just me.

ha ha ha, at the jap wreckers today the guy was telling me that most people hear the cars fire up and cream themselves because of the sound of the turbos. makes me think something is really wrong, not sound cool.
turbos are nice but i'd rather be blown

I drove my non turbo cruiser to the exhaust joint with just the manifold on. Was only a 3 minute drive - i even have an MP3 of it. Plenty of frightened pedestrians :twisted:
