tuningblog.eu Your magazine about tuning the car
Which tuner or tuner does not dream of getting an upgrade in both the acoustics and the power delivery? You want that too, then you should read on. Between the three Y-pipeThere are big differences. There is also a fourth type of piping. Here you will find the essential differences for each type:
Straight pipe:
In US classic cars you will usually find this type of piping, here have the exhaust pipes of the cylinder banks no cross-connection. The advantage here is that the bubbling of the V8 comes to full advantage. However, there is no gas exchange, so there is no resonance effect in the exhaust stream, which would increase performance. The potential is therefore not fully exploited.
Y pipe
In this variant, the two pipes are merged into one after the manifold. This type can also be found very often in classic cars but also in newer V6 engines. Since the two cylinder banks are combined to form a tube, gas exchange can take place at low speeds, which has a positive effect on performance. This increases the maximum torque of the engine. However, the single pipe acts like a bottleneck at higher speeds and limits the flow and thus the engine power.
H-Pipe
In this variant, there are in contrast to Straight pipe a single pipe with a small diameter as a cross connection between the two exhaust pipes. Thus, the tube looks like a H. This variant is often encountered in powerful vintage cars but also in the current vehicles, this variant is very common. The advantage here is that the sound is similar to that of the Straight-Pipe is. The cross-connection increases the torque of the engine at low and medium speeds. At higher speeds, the performance also does not break.
X-Pipe
In this variant, the two tubes cross the cylinder banks and form the eponymous X. This species can be found mainly in US cars, which have a performance-enhanced naturally aspirated engine and is rather uncommon in classic cars. The advantage here is the high engine power at medium and higher speeds. However, in this variant, the typical V8 bubbling is almost completely lost.
Of course that had not happened yet!
