Running open stock DP's

I have my CL DP's coming in on monday (thought they were going to be here today )

Anyways, i would like to get a head start on the project.

Im wondering if it would be cool to run open STOCK DP's right now?

and if you all would recommend having the black underneath cover removed until the CL DP's arrive.


They kind of sound like stupid questions now that ive actually typed it LOL but better to be safe than sorry

if you like a whole lot of rattles and noise...I wouldn't do it. Honestly you are only saving yourself 1/2 hour, but incurring wasted time jacking the car up twice. Patients is a virtue.

You can do it for sure and it won't harm the car in anyway, if anything your running the exhaust side to it's optimal point. Carbon buildup won't be that much unless your running this for over a month! Other than it being loud, well really really loud it would be okay. Neighbors will hate you and cops will love you since they can write you tickets and fulfill their summons quota for the month

If you don't mind the noise go for it. Unless the 335 is different from every other turbo car, the turbos will love it.
