Just a question..
would there be any worth wile increases in overall hp if you cut the "fake dual" off a v6 and costom weld a hanger right where you cut off the Y. and the put 1 generic muffler on..?

 

what pipe size will you be using, the main exhaust restriction on the v6's is the "T" pipe (near #27) that merges the exhaust from both headders:



if you custom 2.25" from each stock manifold or go with headders and use a real 2-1 merge collector instead of that crap :



2.25 " primaries and 2.75" or 3" collector and 3" back to one single muffler, (i.e. you can use the 5zigen turbo fireball 3" muffler) and set it up as straight as possable one bend to the side N-1 style, you will be super awesomely majorly cranked

and oh yeah i forgor the cat as well

 

I'm sorry,
I ment using the pipe just after the CAT.before the Y end peice with the mufflers.
and putting a uni muffler after about a foot behind the CAT using a custon hanger...
(to where if you were looking from behind you would see no exahust..just here a good tone)
I cant figure any better way to explain ... sorry
P.S. where did you get the diagram??

Hey SOHCArchangel did you fall asleep,or finaly just freak out??
I've seen some of your other posts!!j/k...I hope i explained enough.
If not I'll try to photoshop something...

 

why waste time with something that will give minimal if not no gain, instead of attacking the real culprit?

man if i was to start all over again things would be way different with what ive learned and know now (the little that i do)

 

The real culprit? ?

 

look at the diagram in the lower left hand corner that pos excuse for a merge pipe that supposedly merges exhaust gases from both banks of the motor look at that design:

one pipe flows straight..

the other flows directly into the pipe wall of the first pipe there is no uniformity in flow and direction of that flow at all infact this type of setup totally destroys flow qualities from the other pipe, working more against each other than together.

that is why you will see some crazy *** gain of 20+ to the wheels with a properly flowing system.

remember you only flow as much as the smallest restriction......

 

I totaly see what you mean! I s there any way that joe shmo(me) can change,or
get aftermarket stuff for it. damn I never realy looked at it that way.
is what you were talking about above something I can do my self or just have someone do it. cheers...

 

well you need the piping and merge collectors, flanges,gaskets, and cat, muffler and have someone weld it up for you

remember lookat it from the flows perspective...

 

Hey, thanks man serously.
I'm going to take it to a buddy of mines this weekend and have him start drawing it up. again. thanks
