I like really LOUD open exhaust. Who doesn't? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif)

with the exception of Laguna, the the Db limit is 103.
My SIX goes to 7300 rpm's. How loud will it be?

I'm planning on making a set. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Any ideas?

I was wondering is there any danger to the engine, specifically the valves, when running an open exhaust? Cool air rushin back to the valves and warping, bending etc?


Thanks,

There is a fair chance that your mixture will need to be richened if you uncork the exhaust. I typically go up one jet size on my mains (Weber 46's) when I go from mufflers to open pipes.
