Default Hood stack

Wondering the best way I could make a pipe to run a hood stack on my stock turbo without flipping it or anything?

Might be able to use the existing down pipe, and just turn it to point up. Cut to length, and all done.

To exit the hood and not the cowl you need to fab a 90* toward the fender then another 90 to the front of the truck then 90 up. Obviously the air filter is in the way

Out of curiosity, why do you want a hood stat that puts soot on the cab, adds significant drone to the cab, and makes you chop up your hood?

Well I know it's stupid but I think it looks and sounds good no purpose for it but I have an extra hood so idc and I am going to use my 8 inch MBRP tip for the stack

If you have a mig, buy aluminized exhaust pipe. That's what my compound system is made of. Keep the heat low, just do spots at a time, and you will be able to fab up what you need.
