Hi all,I dont see how the hell Yogi gets flames (im not saying you dont!) unless the car is running mega rich and the heat of the exhaust pipe or valves is igniting it. Would be cool though. Apollo the 4in section goes about 6in after where the pipe bolts onto the dump. So 3in for 6in then say 8in of 4in and then back to 3in before the pipe exits under the firewall. I have heard this off a few people i know who own very modified quick cars and i agree the 15% is very optimistic but even 5% is great for next to no outlay!! I was told it had something to do with slowing the air speed momentarily when the pipe expands to 4in then when it goes back to 3in the air speed increases and helps to extract the exhaust gases from the engine as it speeds up. I have been stuffing with my exhaust system all day trying to get it to fit under a car 50mm off the ground and i have almost got it done,then ill put the 4in bit in. I cant see it affecting power in a bad way so it will either gain or do nothing so it wont hurt to try it out. Just thought i would share it with everyone as some people might be interested in doing it.
Jamie.
