    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Yah doods i'm back.

So i'm attempting, with my boilermaker buddy, to make my own exhaust adding on to where i f'd up and chopped em off behind the manifold.
(yah yah you told me so)

My question is, is there any type of formula to figure out the best length of the 'cans' or overall system to get optimal airflow speed and avoid the 'bubbly' problems i've been reading about? (can't remember the tech terms but had something to do with pockets of air having a back flow across the exhaust ports and hence affecting the speed of air)

It's been freakin beautiful here in CO and i NEED to get this thing proper to ride ASAP!! :)

As always, thanks in advance for your input, yo.
heheheh
 
Too many variables to give a simple formula to. Pipe sizing, back pressure (or lack of it), length of pipe, pods vs. air box, ect.
It is really a trial and error type of setup and you'll be doing plenty of plug chops and jet changes unless you have access to a color tune and a dyno...
