Heard that it works by letting the exhaust go through the muffler twice.
So the noise is filtered twice, but without actually using two mufflers and no need for restrictive silencers.

QUOTE(farique @ Mar 16 2007, 09:38 PM) okay, let get things spicy a little in here.. If you read carefully, the article said:I have a doubt, according to what Gouki's posted (http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/tech/991...xhaust_systems/) I got confused on what is backpressure. At first, it stated there that the exhaust at least needs backpressure and while you keep on reading, it will says that engine doesnt need backpressure. Now, what is the difference between this two? The exhaust needs backpressure? But why? Aside from changing the muffler unit, why not redo the tubing of the exhaust to gain power? Does this can be done? Use new tubing size from CC to muffler and ends with original muffler. How? "Some self-proclaimed engine gurus claim too large of an exhaust tube on a car can cause problems; engines need a certain amount of backpressure to run correctly." That was someone else's claim. Now this is his answer for that claim: "Although the statement about not running too large of a tube is correct, the assumption about engines needing backpressure is not." |

QUOTE(Kagaya @ Mar 16 2007, 11:46 PM) I think I happened to read in NST Car,Bikes and Trucks regarding backpressure. Then you'd have to reset the valve timing, don't you? After that, you'd get the max benefit, right?Assuming that after the exhaust cycle, exhaust exiting the pipe flows in high velocity, creating a vacuum as it leaves the pipe. But, before the gas fully left, the vacuum effect siphoned the air-gas mixture before the valve fully closed in such rapid movement. Without the necessary pressure to helps the valve close in time, air-gas mixture exits with the exhaust together, resulting in the waste of unburnt air-gas mixture (gas is gasoline, or fuel). Well, that's what it says and why those big MILO TIN is having ultra high FC, loud rumbling of an asthmatic elephant but no power to fart. I'm not sure, still learning about all the valve timing and stuff so please forgive me. Those milo tin exhaust slows down the velocity of exhaust gases so therefore there is little to no scavenging. The vacuum is good so that it could help suck in fuel and air because the intake stroke is one of the dead-stroke, there is no power produced, only drag. Having something to help with that I think is good. I still believe no backpressure is good. |
