61976, Exhaust idea?
Posted by DR1665, Oct-22-03 11:59 AM
So if the new AEM V2 CAI has that chambered design to help improve flow, could this principle be applied to the exhaust system as well? If I'm right, the V2 increases volume, but does the design promote better velocity as well? An increase in exhaust gas velocity would equal a decent gain in power, correct? If this would work in this respect, you would basically reverse the arrangement of the piping of the V2 (in a simulated design -- not thinking of using a CAI in the exhaust system), so the end resembling the filter would meet the header/cat and the tb end would end up at the muffler.

Just some food for thought. If this would work, and someone makes one and it's awesome, I better get one for free for thinking of it first. :P

in theory, that sounds like it could work but i dont know if its realistic:shrug

This principle already exist for hedder. Chikara call it "reversion chamber technology"

Those hedders have bin in use in drag racing for years (TopFuel). Now it's avelable to Joe Everybody.

I don't know if an exhoust pipe would gain from this principle.

Thanks! Oh well. Just an idea, right? :P
