In between the exhaust manifolds and the turbo. You run risks of pieces of the resonator coming apart (which most likely won't happen) and sucking in to the turbo which will result in damage.

The turbo isn't creating the rasp... it's the serious lack of any type of resonation in the whole exhaust system.

Also, is there cats on this set up? Are there any safeguards against peices of the cat coming loose and getting sucked in to the turbo?

This whole setup is mind boggling. I want to see pictures of all the components not installed.
