That's a new one.

If you wanna say hood stacks are for pull-trucks, then why wouldn't stacks behind a cab be just for 18-wheelers?

Flipping the manifold is a stupid idea - the turbo drain line will be on the top.

Sorry, not trying to be rude, but it's rained with my truck in the yard for weeks... And no problem... Park your truck in the rain for a few weeks.... What happens???

Unless you've got a pretty good sized hole in the bottom of your hood stack, that water is going into your turbo... If you're lucky.

Really??? Really really???

I would hope your joking, otherwise you need to really open the hood and look at your turbo and how it is built...

Its called not running a competition only setup on a street truck. I have one very good reason not to run a hood stack, if you drag race, and you go to certain races that are sanctioned, you WILL be thrown in pro street with a hood stack. No matter whats done to the truck. As for stacks being for big rigs, a lot of competition guys, myself included are required to have vertical exhaust for their organization, just in case your turbo blows apart and decides to depart the vehicle via the exhaust.
