what if pause what if?

Post by drunkenmaxx »

ok, all you automotive geniuses, lend me your insight. how much horsepower would you estimate to be gained from awd getting a revamp on its exaust, eliminating the issue w/twists and turns, as well as adding the high flow (removed)?

Probably not worth messing with....maybe 5 horsepower at the flywheel and a loss of backpressure and torque..

well, i was wondering, because the route alone eliminates 7hp from the base...

so, would it be appropriate to assume 7hp(from straighter pipes) + approx 2hp from high flow (removed)=about 9 or 10 horses all together?

i'm not whining, it would just be a whole lot easier to get it in the mail and slap it on the car, as opposed to waiting for them to make the damn thing, then put it on the car. i only have one car (i work a legit job and pay for my own stuff)
