Nice work Chris!
Question: Any measurements on db yet?
The reason for the question is that Laguna Seca is 92db max.
Second (hopefully not stupid) question: If I took my existing 4 into one header off my engine and put your system on, is it possible to predict a difference in performance?
Randal,
I get sound readings at SCCA races for my race car. Typically, with a muffler like this the numbers are 90-92, rarely 93. A lot depends on sound meter location and atmospheric conditions.
Yes it is possible to predict a difference in performance. Without knowing any of the particulars about your engine I already know there would be a big increase in midrange torque. That is a typical characteristic of tri-y header designs.
