You'd probably fudge the strut tower paint and your hearing for life. Open headers are fun. Good work getting it off man, what did you end doing, chop it?

Open exhaust (basicly just pipes to direct the flames from the engine to the free air) on rotary's is what caused IMSA rules to change, and have real exhausts Freekin' RX2 and 3 were so loud it'd scare the V8 dudes!!! So they had to wear silencers, boohoo!!! If I could I'd bolt on a straight pipe and no silencer to my car, but I guess I wouldn't drive that one very long
