Default what makes equal length manifolds make soo much HP

why is it that an equal length manif, will make soo much more power than a log? is it the exhaust delivery, the time it is in the manifold or the size and diameter or length or what

please explain

go read the full-race thread, log VS tubular.

What happened to the explanation? It looks like he edited the post and took out the scientific explanation or something.

THe exauhst pulses are seperated so that each hits the turbine at different time, not all at once, then nothing, think of a water wheel, if you have a continuous flow it will be more effiecient and move faster as opposed to filling each bucket at once then letting gravity pull it. When you have the equal length it makes a more continuous exauhst flow. When each exauhst valve opens that is when the pulse is created and if it takes the same amount of time to get to the turbine from the valve for each cylinder, then each pulse will get there slightly after the one before and so on.

Now Cody says that his Lovefab SST isn't a true equal length manifold. Is the Full Race a true equal length?

they never were equal lengths, they just said they were cuz they appear to be so.
