i HAVE true duals, but i also have a system just make sure you run a crayon from the engine back, where the crayon STOPS melting is where you put the X-PIPE!!

 

, just like everything else they adverstise for performance??

 

Let me try another analogy.

If you stick your head up your *** (or already have it there), Your head and your large intestine will be in the same chamber. The hot air from both will mix.

And if you still don't believe me, eat some refried beans, and tell me if your hair smells like your sphincter.

 

Are you referring to a Cranial Rectal Inversion?

 

I think I am starting to understand the principle now. But just to be sure, what you are saying is that if I use a higher octane gas, I will get less blow-by out of my valves, and thus my exhaust should smell like a buritto??

Thanks for the clarification.

 

I am not trying to be difficult here, but is the top piece a mirror image of the bottom piece? If the answer is yes, are the two horizontal lines welded together separately? If yes, then they are two separate chambers. But you say no, so can you explain. I am missing something here. If the two horizontal lines were welded together, then yes it will mix both chambers. I cannot tell by looking at the picture. Thanks.

 

It looks like you can remove the resonator if you want the car to be louder. Use just straight pipe like was suggested or an X-pipe or H-pipe. There may be no gain except resonance. Just stay away from the buritos!

Yes, the two horizontal lines are welded together. It's cut in half and is not a cross section view.

 

This is a question that CC would be happy to answer.

CC, could you please field this question?

 

 

with

Yes, it truely is UFB.....

 

Look at the image above. Now imagine a long piano hinge welded inside the 2 pieces that are almost touching. Fold the bottom piece of the resonator up to close up the resonator like it was before it was cut.
The inlet tubes are to the left, the exit tubes that are sticking out are at the right. So a reciprocating saw went right down the middle of the car(as the exhaust is mounted in the car that is). Right between the left and right banks. So if you fold it in half, like the hinge analogy you can picture the center section of the resonator as 1 large chamber open to all 4 pipes, 2 in and 2 out.

 

So you are saying that the two horizontal lines are welded together. Fine, like I said I cannot tell by looking at the pictures, sorry if I pissed someone off.

 

OMFG. way too funny

 

It's just that we spent 4 days going roundy round with one guy convincing him of what the pic shows, some even went to the trouble of drawing a sketch. And then you come in without reading any of those responses and ask the same damn question.

I'm a reasonably guy, but this is just plain ridiculous, I think if you read the whole thread you might see why I said what I did.

 

Those internal pipes really neck down! That sucker is coming off this weekend!

I have read the whole thread and have seen all of the pictures. Having the two horizontal lines welded together answers my question. Thanks.

 

Are you saying that the pic that Eike posted did not clear up any confusion that you may have had? This had to be the best image indicating how that resonator was cut !!

this thread is making my head hurt...

 

I have been following this thread, and I thought I would input some information on my experience. We have two 94 Corvettes in the household, one is a couple, the other a convertible. Both were purchased used, the coupe came with a set of Flowmasters, and the converitble came with stock exhaust. In the last few weeks, the convertible had a chambered exhaust system put on it...system was used...unknown manufacture. Today, the couple got a new exhaust also a chambered sytem, athough its a new one, from Corvette Central. The only difference between the two chambered systems, seems to be that the one from Corvette Central, has an "H" pipe, and the system on the convertible doesn't .

There is a big difference in the sound from the two cars. The convertible (No H-pipe) has a sound more like the Sting Rays with the side pipes, louder, more gutsy. The system on the coupe..with H pipe..is much more mellow, and not nearly as loud, which disappointed me, as I did want it louder, like the convertible's exhaust. So in this case....it does seem that an "H" pipe does make the exhaust quieter. The system on the coupe does have a nice sound...no raspy or sputtering, and a nice deep mellow sound...kind of a "gentleman's exhaust" Also it has one of the reasons I wanted to get rid of the Flowmasters.....NO resonance It use to drive me crazy at cruise....6th gear, 70-75 MPH....as the "Dronemaster"...made their presents known.

I will live with the "H" pipe system for awhile, and maybe somewhere down the road, I might experiment with blocking off the "H" pipe, to see if it changes the sound.

 

yep i got true duals, love em!!!!!!!
