Running Open Downpipe at VMP?

If you are turbocharged, is it ok to run at VMP with just a open downpipe?
Or do they require thru a muffler system?

Lots of guys in old POS rust buckets like to run open headers on their 12 second cars out there

what kinda car you got? you probably know all about it but running a open downpipe might give you some problems with boost creep or whatever, make sure you have the proper fuel/boost management for it

If you are talking to me, I have a 91 Sentra Se-r. Running a T3\T4 set up with a JWT ecu.
Thanks for the advice.
