Using the metric system in a video watched internationally. You're the real MVP.

@saratj1 8 лет назад

Id be willing to wager that the overwhelming majority of the audience are more familiar with US customary units (had to look that up) and using a single system would have basically no effect on the channel. The US creates a disproportionate amount of the entertainment that the world watches and Im sure the world has adapted to watching content that caters to an american audience.

@The-Athenian 8 лет назад

saratj1 If the percentage of countries using the imperial system was similar to the percentage of internet content created by the US, I would agree. I think ideally we should do as Wikipedia, and always try to use both. Even though the official IU is the metric system.

@patricknintemann924 8 лет назад

it is good he uses the metric system too . i only know the metric system . when he would use another then i would have to calculate how much is that in the metric system . so , using both is easyer for all .

@SayWhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat 8 лет назад

@scott185 9 лет назад

He's not saying it will increase the power to 225 hp. He was simply saying the bigger exhaust will allow enough airflow for an engine producing approximately 225 hp. So if you were to tune it then this exhaust will help airflow up to 225 hp.

@flow5718 6 лет назад

That's a load of bull mate. How is changing just the catback part going to reduce bottleneck and increase airflow when you're still using the stock exhaust headers and catalytic converter and the pipe in between those two? Honestly, I think all a catback exhaust does (on its own without other exhaust manifold mods) is 'improve' the sound, and that's subjective.

@daexion 5 лет назад

@@flow5718 Even with stock headers it's possible for the diameter of the catback piping to be a bottleneck and cause back pressure. If you don't have stock headers, then the next bottle neck would be the catback pipes. You are right on the sound of the exhaust itself being subjective, and increasing the potential amount of flow won't necessarily help if the engine is still stock as the video mentions.

@flow5718 5 лет назад

@@daexion I don't have any links right now, but search for as many catback only mods with real dyno tests and you will see in most cases putting catback decreases the hp slightly. stock engines need a certain amount of backpressure.

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

Great question, and of course it depends on the current exhaust's restriction, and where the restriction lies. But if everything else is up to speed, for an engine like mine it may be good for about 10 hp, or maybe more if it was turbod.

@EngineeringExplained 11 лет назад

Correct, as I mentioned in the video it depends mostly on the most restrictive point. It's a process which requires multiple steps to do it right.

@takadekadaka2493 8 лет назад

Great video! Just my two cents (coming from what I learned as an HVAC engineer and applying it to cars): I think you should have mentioned the fact that there are a lot of reasons why even if the exhaust system past the catalytic converter is the ONLY limiting factor in your setup, there are a lot of factors that go into why you still don't get a power increase that is one to one with the proportional increase in the pipe's interior cross sectional area - you could get higher or lower depending on your set-up. I realize that you presented a simple concept to show that the flow rate would increase as a result of the increased diameter, but in doing so you held a lot of the other variables equal that play a big role in the system. But I think if you had talked about turbulent versus laminar flow (using the Reynold's number) and mass flow rate, it would have explained a lot more. Namely: - Laminar or turbulent flow through the pipe (High Reynolds number>4000 = turbulent,

@Forde3654Eire 10 лет назад

@teresabarbu4991 7 лет назад

A mathematical explanation, very nice. Often people want exact numbers but don't take into consideration the MULTIPLE variables. Knowing where the exhausts limitations are by diameter will be very helpful thank you.

@BanjoMasterPete 11 лет назад

One detail that was not mentioned was the possibility for better MPG. I personally did a larger cat-back exhaust on a similar car (2000 Ford Escort ZX2) and without any big modifications I had gained around 2 or 3 MPG. Then, once I had the muffler replaced with an even better flowing one, I had gained another 2 MPG. This was noted directly after only doing that replacement, as I keep track of my MPG at most fill-ups.

@A_SEGA_Dremcast 10 лет назад

I have that very exhaust and I love it. My Integra's exhaust was aging and full of holes. The Yonaka catback was inexpensive compared to replacing the OEM piping. The car sounds as the speaker describes. It's relatively quiet when you drive normally, but does get deep and loud when you increases the RPMs. It cleans up nice and I've not had any issues with it. Is there a performance benefit? Maybe, but I haven't noticed a difference.

@EngineeringExplained 11 лет назад

Yes, that was one of the points I was going to discuss, however since this is much larger, it appears that it would weigh more. The Yonaka was about 29 lbs I believe, I haven't weighed the stock one.

@flickerblip9044 8 лет назад

There is a lot more to performance exhaust systems (if done correctly) than just back pressure. A properly designed system will create a negative pressure wave in the headers to increase fuel scavenging on the intake stroke. while this is largely accomplished through proper header design, the rest of the system is key to proper header performance, including the amount of back pressure present. I know you know this, but it is not mentioned in the video at all. simply adding a cat back can actually result in less performance, unless the rest of the system is designed properly. Kevin Cameron has a great breakdown of exaust system engineering in The Sportbike Performance Handbook. Love your videos, BTW.

@flickerblip9044 8 лет назад

forgot to add, the intake system design is also integral to the system. it is just an airpump in the end.

@lliaolsen728 8 лет назад

+Brian Donegan I came to the realization that headers do most of the scavenging. You can get some benefit from the rest of the exhaust as well but the biggest and strongest "suction wave" or in your terms, "negative pressure wave" occurs when there is a large change in the diameter of the pipe. The length of the header determines when this wave will travel back, but not it's strength. This makes the collector or any large change in volume critical in providing a point at which there is a large change in volume from the primaries 4-1 or secondaries 4-2-1. The exhaust just efficiently removes the exhaust and really should be focused on flow. I have yet to have a car that could fit a muffler right after the collector to prove that the change in volume on a 4-2-1 right after the header would be beneficial because most 4 cylinder cars don't have space for a muffler there without ripping up the floor, or removing the engine and running it on a stand.

@lliaolsen728 8 лет назад

+Llia Olsen If your info was taken from Motorcycles that have a much shorter exhaust run. You could really considered a muffler after the header as your first big change in volume.

Too Stancy I had a 2000 2.0 Golf 2 door. I had a Vibrant cat back exhaust and a KN washable panel filter put on the car. The midrange performance felt a little better. The change in performance was slight not dramatic. The exhaust tone was lower and louder. My advise is if you enjoy listening to the stereo while you drive don’t change the exhaust.

Muffler = reduces the sound of your car (remove it for loudness) so yeah pretty much remove everything and use a straight pipe for eargasm :D

@LMF5000 9 лет назад

Fellow mechanical engineer here. I'd like to understand your reasoning behind your recommendation: Given that horsepower is proportional to exhaust mass flow rate, then by following your suggestion to tune engine until bhp/area ratio is the same as the stock system, this means that you are basically targeting to keep exhaust flow velocity the same as the stock system (mdot = rho*v*A => increasing mdot in proportion to A yields constant v) Is there a reason that you think this is the optimum operating point? Is it because you assume the rest of the exhaust system is tuned to work best at this particular flow velocity?

@Titilomelirifa 9 лет назад

By what I heard he said you start to see a difference around that hp range.

@aiyoo4517 5 лет назад

@WaffleShortage 2 года назад

probably just relying on the assumption that the exhaust flow interaction with everything else was engineered well by the original engineering team at whichever car manufacturer. it's a good rule of thumb for the layman, but obviously some crazy custom shops and engineers who want to bore out cylinders and do all kinds of their own crazy tuning and dyno analysis might stray from this guidance. i think this is meant more for like, the average 'car enthusiast' who just wants to slap some parts on and not actually have to have a staff of like 5 guys working to redesign and rebuild his engine and do days or weeks of diagnostics and troubleshooting and such. is it absolutely a scientific and great rule? maybe not... but it's probably good enough for the consumer.

@patusher77 10 лет назад

So if i had say 2250 hp, would I find significant gains from a 22.6" catback exhaust?

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

No, it's certainly not a linear relationship, and I've oversimplified it, but with 2250 hp you would certainly be restricted with a 2" exhaust.

What I'm trying to figure out is if he meant at around 260hp you start to notice the best gains from a 2.5" exhaust? For the most part 2.5-3" exhausts will take you up past a thousand whp before you just run straight headers on a 4 cyl.

@chadw8481 10 лет назад

it depends on what your putting the straight pipe on. even the diameter of the pipe would change what a straight pipe would do.

@JonCaveman 6 лет назад

Nice hat

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

Backpressure is simply referring to the pressure losses caused by a large quantity of air trying to squeeze through relatively small pipes. The larger the pipe, the less restriction it has, but simultaneously the lower the exhaust velocity. Optimum is a balance of the two.

@EngineeringExplained 11 лет назад

Yep, eventually I'll get around to install videos.

@kingcrimson234 8 лет назад

You can't just say "oh it's 60% larger so it's good for 60% more horsepower". There is more airflow potential, but that's not really as important as you're making it out to be. If an engine needs to push more air out, it will just increase the flow rate through the pipe. Up to a certain point, this doesn't cause an issue. I upgraded a Mach 1 Mustang from 300 HP to 520 HP, I have 3" diameter exhaust piping. Going larger isn't going to help me much if at all. The original diameter was 2.5" and I increased the horsepower by about 73%. The speed of the air flowing through the exhaust just increases a bit. You won't really see any gains on a dyno by switching to say, 4" exhaust piping. In fact, you will probably lose some low end torque. Most of your videos are really good, but frankly there's some misinformation in this one.

@nickdseidel 8 лет назад

I disagree with you, while your right that putting an exhaust system that is much too large will cause losses in low end torque, the extra back pressure caused by more exhaust gasses will have a negative effect as well. So if you ate going to significantly increase your horse power and keep your stock exhaust, you will deffinately not reach the full potential.

@kingcrimson234 8 лет назад

Nick Seidel I was mainly talking about pipe size though, a stock exhaust system usually has very restrictive cats and mufflers. I was more referring to having high-flow cats and mufflers already and then changing the pipe size. It doesn't matter much unless you are doing some truly insane power upgrades. I should have been specific about that. In the video, he was suggesting that a 60% larger diameter pipe is good/ideal for 60% more horsepower when you really need nowhere close to that.

@nickdseidel 8 лет назад

+kingcrimson234 Okay I deffinately see your point now, and you're right, if you're going to install high flow cats and mufflers you really don't need bigger pipe diameter.

@kingcrimson234 8 лет назад

65PontiacTempest That's 100% true. Every build has its own sweet spot for pipe diameter. I went the forced induction route personally. (Procharger) A little bit bigger exhaust may make more power, but I'm pretty happy at my power level. Alright, I lied. I'd like some more but I'm nervous about my factory rods and pistons holding up if I increase the boost!

@bodyrepairuk8783 7 лет назад

Long story short exhaust manifolds are cast iron, fairly heavy, have smaller tubes and they're not all equal in length, Headers are aftermarket which use individual steel tubes for each cylinder, are all equal in length and have wider tubes, both have advantages and disadvantages depending on whether you're after performance or longevity

@willdog3 7 лет назад

Back pressure is not a myth. The argument is whether you need some or not. And Engine Masters tested different exhaust vs no exhaust and found that even 3 inch straight pipes are better than open headers. Now, you can definitely tune an engine to account for zero back pressure, but for most applications you will want exhaust anyways, and more back pressure can also reduce emissions and increase efficiency.

I would certainly agree, if their reason is for increased performance. If they simply want a different look/sound, I'll allow them to make their own subjective decision on whether or not it's better. Like I said, I do hope to eventually get some tests on this.

Dude, it's great that you try to be nice and respond to comments, but people are so ignorant that most of the time there's no point in doing it. I'm just waiting for a comment about how a bigger exhaust creates drag, or adds weight... Btw, love the channel, learned a lot! Cheers mate!

You can buy them on Yonaka's website, or from a dealer, or many online sources. They're not too pricey either.

Thanks for the video. I ended up buying that exhaust for my 01 GS-R and I love it. Do you have any updates on your Project Integra? - Great channel btw!

Hi, first off thank you very much for your videos. I've learned so much from them so far. I was wondering if you could create a video explaining why a wrc/rally car has the cat placed at the end of the exhaust system in comparrison to a stock car which has the cat close to the engine. I think this is to do with heat managment but I could be wrong. Anyway its just a suggestion, thanks again for all your great quality videos and keep up the good work, we love it here in ireland

Yep, 140 at the fllywheel. I have a video on engine vs wheel for anyone unsure of the difference.

@JustAnotherPersonHere 10 лет назад

Very interesting equation to determine the best mated hp for a specific inlet measurement. Thanks man, this is good stuff!

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

It's definitely oversimplified, but probably a decent starting point.

You should do a video on vibro-acoustic tuning of an exhaust (tuning the reflective and incident waves). This is where exhaust design gets interesting!

Thank you 4 makeing videos like this there very helpful

@car_ventures 11 лет назад

yep you are spot on... resonator = tuned for reducing specific frequencies i.e if 500hz is very prominent at speed limit, then the resonator will work to tackle that frequency. The muffler applies a blanket reduction of db's across the whole frequency spectrum

@EngineeringExplained 11 лет назад

Why is that? It doesn't increase horsepower by 60%, as I mentioned in the video. But it may be optimized for an engine creating 60% more power.
