thats also a good idea.either way, i wouldnt want it open like that so close to wires. a friend of mine has a honda with a open wastegate and it shoots a 3ft flame out of it when he 2-steps (idk if you know what that is, but it essentially changes your redline when your stopped so you can launch with the least amount of tirespin possible)

true, but from the pictures it doesnt look like the dump is pointing down, it looks like its angled toward some harness wires. i could be wrong though. even so, id get a pipe on that.

alright well your going to want to take that plastic off those wires and see if you can resolder them back together. then heat shrink them, then see if you can move those wires AWAY from the manifold. those are wayyy to close and are melting like you said. you might be able to get some kind of metal or something to make some sort of heat shield.
