Suggestion

From the physics perspective if there is a change in the diameter, bend or a split then there will be the potential for back flow which could decrase power and change the note of the sound.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have just fitted the Tequipment four-tube tips to my sports exhaust and I would say that the exhaust note is now a bit deeper and a tad quieter. It might just be my imagination but I feel that the power is a little down as well. These tips have a reasonable sized indentation on the bend so that they clear the cross pipe from the cat, and I wonder if this is causing a little restriction to the gas flow. Has anyone else experienced a before and after fitment of these tips? Migration info. Legacy thread was 51050

POST 2Original post

Hi, This is something I want to look into for my sports exhaust. From the physics perspective if there is a change in the diameter, bend or a split then there will be the potential for back flow which could decrase power and change the note of the sound. However I am assuming that Tequipment know waht they are doing and are marrying both products together to get the optimal performance. I will look into this further. Regards Alan. Migration info.

POST 3Original post

Hmmmm...i am confused, I had thought (from specing up a 996 4S yonks ago on porsche site configurator) that the PSE was not compatible with the 4 tube tips. could be wrong, and too late to check now as configurator is for 997... Migration info. Legacy thread was 51076

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hmmmm.....as well, I wonder if this is the case. But if it's a gas flow issue, surely it would affect the stock exhaust as well. Migration info. Legacy thread was 51122
