Manifolds, long style, equal length???
I'm hearing conflicting stories now about manifolds, first I heard equal length is better, now I hear long style??? Can anyone spread some light on this issue for me?
first of all, its LOG style
second of all, everyone knows that FI is stupid and hondas are only fast when they are N/A.
The theory is longer the runners the faster the turbo will spool b/c the air gains more energy over longer distances or something to that degree. But the downside has to do with the heat exchange over the length of the runners i believe. Basically either a log or a equal length can make power. You should get a bit faster spool with the equal length over the log. Personally I would rock a equal length if i had money not b/c they work better, but just because they look much cooler......sadly enough thats half the truth. Who wants to build a race car and have a fugly loggie in their engine bay?
Wow, sorry for the thread jacking.
In before the lock!
