RE: Disconnecting GT Muffler
 
okay so in your opinion is it a good thing to do...and the power loss is not that significant right?

Yes, you will lose high end horsepower. You will gain about 50% more low end Torque as compared to the high end horsepower lost's figure, however. Don't listen to what anyone else tells you, that's what happens. I know exhaust.. I had a lot of problems with mine. Sorry for beating around the bush, I was at work.. got distracted.
look out everyone! we have an exhaust expert on our hands! :eek:

tell me in DETAIL why you know what you do and why your way is right. i gotta hear this.

Yes you will lose low end torque, you dont really LOSE power, you adjust your torque.

I would also like the see some proof in detail from expert Evenexchange. Hope you have some dyno sheets, because your wrong on this one pal.

I dont need proof and wasn't looking for critics.

Why do track cars run open headers? I dont have time for detail, i'll just let you figure that one out by yourself... I'm sure your capable. [sm=closed.gif]

:eek: Ok, well I do have experience with the subject, I've had my exhaust all kinds of different ways. YOU WILL LOSE LOW END TORQUE. PERIOD.

I dont really care if your not looking for critics, with your little comment "Dont listen to what everyone else tells you, I know exhaust" I would assume that you would have at least some experience with the topic and be able to prove yourself at least a little bit. Obviously you dont.

I forgot that ALL track cars run open headers. :eek: In fact there are quite a few that DONT. Depending on what class the car is in, it might be a rule that you have to run exhaust.

I find it really hard to believe that your an exhaust EXPERT but yet you start a thread asking when to check your coolant, along with the other pointless threads that you have posted.

haha i wasnt trying to start a war...but if it does loose low end torque is it a noticable difference?

You don't need backpressure, the velocity is the important thing. I highly doubt you lost or gained anything from removing the muffler(s).
