914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Thoughts on exhaust

Posted by: TonyAKAVW Feb 20 2006, 06:21 PM

My current plans for exhaust on my subaru conversion is to keep everything as high as possible to make room for the flat bottom and diffuser which I'm going to install.

To do this I figure that I will come out of the engine with the Outback Motors 2-1 collectors, then make a right angle up and then another right angle towards the back, and have two glasspacks running the length of the transmission (above the axles) and then exiting through the bumper. The problem is I can't figure out where to put a crossover between the left and right sides to get some scavenging. Secondly I don't even know what good the scavenging will do if it is arbitrarily placed.

So, what I'm looking for is insight onto whether I should really try to get some scavenging or if its just not worth it.

Any other ideas would be appreciated as well.

I wish I could afford a full custom stainless exhaust. Instead I'm doing it cheap.

Also, my entire exhaust will be contained within an engine compartment that doesn't see the road or the sky. So I don't need stainless....
