Will it hurt to drive with stock piping after engine is installed?

I plan on doing the swap this weekend and wont have my exhaust in until middle of next week. Will it hurt to drive my car with the stock piping or is it not recommend? Thanks

it wont hurt it at all. remember, the stock 180sx/silvia that your engine came in had basically the same exhaust as your stock one. i wouldnt worry about it too much. it'll help later on to upgrade but it wont hurt you now.

bolt it up. I ran open downpipe for a week before I decided to have a cheap one made cuz it was killing my ears!

I didnt even think about the 180sx havin the same stock piping. Makes me feel pretty stupid, lol. Its all good tho. Thanks for the answer. I'll let ya'll know how the swap comes along and get some pics takin of us doin it.

180sx used bigger piping stock (slightly) and don't turn the boost up on stock piping... thats asking for boost spikes;)
