  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Yes indeed gentlemen. :)

    There are still valuable lessons to be extracted from even this generalized information.

    I doubt there is a 'need' for all of it, just some suggestions and results. I thought it was a good read anyway, and adds to this thread.

    You could try lining up "X" pipes all along your entire system and see what that does, if you're feeling ambitious. lol

    Another thread from that forum titled "difference between shorty and full length headers" is also an excellent read (highly recommended), and is relevant to this thread.

    He goes into camshaft design too, with very interesting information that anyone could benefit from.

    Everyone do yourselves a huge favor and spend some time reading.

    I could elaborate some more on all this, but I feel it's so well put on this forum that all I need to do is post links! lol

    Looks like a good reference with a lot of testing and documentation. Gotta like that. Seems to track the discussions we've had here pretty well too and gives some new perspectives. I haven't read it all, it gets pretty deep in places. But if I was presently planning an exhaust system it would surely be worth a closer look.

    The site has always had a good collaboration of the basic concepts in performance.
    Much of this is from old publications. A lot of McFarland and Vizard it would appear.
