When you say "without exhaust", just how *without* are we talking? Open exhaust ports on the heads, or just something like removing the catback and dumping it right at the Y-pipe?

You might want to consider putting a turndown on the end of the Y-pipe if you plan on leaving it open like that for an extended time. That'll direct the soot away from the undercarrige.
