I did the same on my '85, only it was for about 40 miles round trip. The only real problem, other that the obnoxious noise is that the floor board gets extremely hot, my carpet began to smolder just before I got home! I dont think a few runs down the track will hurt. As far a engine performance/damage I coundn't tell, all the noise makes your eyeballs bounce around and knocks your chicklets loose https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

Wind it out to like 6500 or 7k, preferably in a valley, or better yet a tunnel https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif its so obnoxious, but ppl just get out of the way, and look at you like you have three heads, its great. I dont need my '85 to support myself so i dont mind beating on it once in a while, so I can appreciate your position if it differs.

I drove my TII around with an open down pipe one night and talk about loud. God Damn it's loud and the turbo sounds like a siren as it's winding down. I thought I was busted the first time I heard it.
