EDIT:
You might even get pretty respectable afterfire! With barely any room to detonate dumped fuel before the exhaust exit, you'll get some nice flames (and likely cook your door panel, melt the paint, and possibly warp your pinch welds, unless you plate the area with some steel).
i like this idea. the heat issue was one of my concerns with running open test pipes. i can feel heat coming up from that section even now with my full exhaust.
