Ok, I'm about to make up a balance pipe for my project. I will have a twin system from front to back and I like the old school sound of a pure separated system but appreciate the advantages of having a balance pipe.
Now, i'm not a fan of the x pipe types because I personally believe that it gives too much of a monotone result soundwise. I also think that a harsh 90 degree H pipe disrupts the airflow too much, so I am considering a slight modification of an H pipe setup.
Did a real quick rough sketch...

I would cut up some 90 degree bends and weld them together. Then weld use some reducer cones and then a smaller dia pipe in the centre to join the two together.
My idea is mainly to smooth out the flow somewhat to reduce distrubance in the airflow. Any comments on doing such a system ? Will it produce more negative effects than positive ones ?
Thoughts appreciated
