Exhaust
#3
Bob-
I am reading this and trying to process what it says.
I understand that 5 inch exhaust would have a deeper sound than 4 inch exhaust...
"but it doesn't do anything other sound"
Are you saying that there is no other benefit going from 4" exhaust to 5" exhaust other than sound? (Thinking there are 6" pipe kits out there also...) I do understand that the turbo turbine outlet (at least on the TP-38) is only 3"...
Mine? Dual 3 inch exhaust through mufflers. Mine seems very "quite" compared to most, but I still seem to have plenty of flow without any noticeable back pressure at all. Although, flow and area wise, I'm not sure where I sit compared to a 5" pipe. I think I have more flow than a single 4" but less than a single 6" pipe. So, I'm not sure where I compare to a 5"... And I was wondering if I should go to a 5 " or not. Not sure of any benefits that I would gain there... so your comment really caught my attention. (Personal interest peeked...)

I had thought that with it being only 3" at the turbo compressor outlet, that here would be a "only opened up to" after that to "big as" limit somewhere... Good to know. Thanks.
