    Problems With Exhaust Size

    hehe, or engine/boats a related question, with my 4 pipes, 2 pipes each side/bank I paired the following cylinders into 1 pipe the cylinder that fires first + the penultimate firing cylinder and the cylinder that fires as number 2 + the cylinder that fires last does that sound about right?

    Problems With Exhaust Size

    I take it that this means that you lose the pump/suction effect in the pipes if they are too large. I have 4 pipes (2 cylinders/pipe) start with a small piece of 2 inch then 2.5 inch then finally 3 inch. Do you have to maintain the "smaller size" all the way to the end in order not to loose...
