Default Exhaust flow reduces at higher rpms??

Hi,

In addition to all the problems mentioned above, I noticed something strange with the exhaust gases on my car, when I ask someone to stamp on the gas and the rpm goes up, and I feel the exhaust stream using my hand, the exhaust gases volume(flow) reduces and becomes hotter, at really high rpms, I almost cannot feel the exhaust flow, only the heat.. What is happening???

Thanks,

es

Hell man, that doesn't make any sense to me at all....how do they stomp on the gas? Do they floor it, then let it go to keep the engine from redlining? Do they keep it floored and it bounces off the limiter? Do they just give it enough gas to keep the rpms up?

If you answer any of these...hell, I still won't be able to help you. Maybe it has something to do with the way the hands perceive heat/ pressure....

Get a flowmeter on that thing, like a flap or sheet of paper and see how much it deflects or something....
