They can and do work well, mainly weight saving, Make sure the first 12-18" is steel/inconel or titainium incase of extreme turbo failure.

The "fabricator" uses it on his own car, only advantage he says is weight, but temps prove not to be a problem, not sure if he uses a different material for front section, will ask, but is on his 600bhp FWD honda prelude, he's also a NOS dealer(highpower), and does all things fabrication and one off, even did some work on the uk car that cracked 273mph, can't remember it's name, try and get a piccie.
His workmanship is awsome, and his prices very reasonable too, even has his own bays with car lifts that you can rent hourly/daily with all tools supplied inc tyre machine press welders etc.

he runs all his high power cars on them saves so much weight and they sound the bollox.

does this guy know much about metals? for your turbo to glow red, being a high steel alloy it will need to reach around 650 deg C, anealing temp of alum is 300-400 deg C, so the alum will be in anealed condition at all times or "O" condition, this is when alum is at its softest and easiest to deform
also as aluminium alloys oxidise, buy heating them up to these temp and cooling them in atmosphere they will corrode massively
has he given you any indication as to how long these exhausts last?

that exhaust has been on that supra for nearly 2 years now its quite big in the jap scene, its not as if its a 1 off converion because hes regualy doing them now with a lot of jap boys, and he gives a lifetime warranty and not yet had one come back.
