Exhaust question Wth is this?

Post by chevyfreak »

So, scrolling thru some images on the net, always looking with exhaust type stuff, just one of my fascinations with engines, i found something weird, what would be the purpose of doing this. No other info on this just the picture.

That’s called practicing your pipe bending and welding techniques.

With certain type of straight through mufflers you can make a quiet and droneless high flow street exhaust by adding a short 1-2-1 pipe section in the mid pipe before the mufflers. It doesn't have to be that artistic though...

Making the competition waste time, money, effort, and enthusiasm trying to reverse-engineer the thing, when they'd be better-off dealing with their own combination rather than monkey-see-monkey-do with your stuff.

I'm not in competition with anyone, nor challenged anyone on this forum.
I asked a question, to find an answer, I never said i'm gonna do it, i asked a question.
Sorry if you feel it's a waste of your time and effort, you are not forced to answer every topic. If you decide to read it and went on to another topic it's minimal of your time and effort and gives you more time for your own stuff.

These government sponsored vaccines have been shown to change humans at the DNA level, maybe where now seeing the effects of what they can do to the Brain with looking at examples like this?

Remember the drug manufacturers producing these have been given immunity from any side effects humans might encounter!

IF one side is longer than the other or slightly different in diameter, it could be about noise frequency control of some kind.

That is the only thing I can figure.

You could be right there. Had a bad week sofar, and most probably read it in one direction and not possible the other.
I do appologise if i misread it, think its time for a long drive down the country roads.
