More power = higher exh temps, this will eventually destroy your cats, when that happens fragments are gonna take your turbo out.

This is just advise, not trying to bash on your build.

I like those wheels!, car looks mean.
That's what I was saying. I am not trying to bash either.

I still love your build just have that concern for the cats. If I were to go through the same build now, I would remove the cats for peace of mind rather than worry every time I boost.
