Awesome work! Any reason you go from a 3 inch outlet up to 4 only to go back down to 3 in the exhaust? It is heat of the exhaust gas that needs the extra volume and then no longer when it increases in speed and cools at the catback?
@justfiive
3 жыл бұрын
That's my question too. Seeing the earlier videos, I assumed they were going 3-4 because that's what the catback was. Now seeing that it's a 3 inch catback, I'm confused. Maybe it's for adding extra volume so the recirc doesn't interfere too much with the exhaust gas coming out. I have no clue though, I'm not a fabricator.
@getweir_d
3 жыл бұрын
Hey Oliver, Dave and Peter had done some research and requested the downpipe to be 4" to provide ample space for the turbo to spool really quickly at the bottom end. When it begins to spool, it wants extra space to spin exhaust gas into without any significant restriction. The neck back down in size is simply to mate to the exhaust they have on the car already. The 3" connection is the only point of the system at that size. If you fast forward to about 29:00 you can see the exhaust steps up to 3.5" right after the flange and it also steps up again at the rear axle to 4". The whole assembly could be considered a long venturi where there is a smooth gradual increase in size to allow exhaust gases to expand and cool, then gradually squeeze them into a smaller diameter to increase velocity, then again open into a larger volume slowly to promote more flow. I'm sure an engineer could explain it better than a fabricator.LOL

I just want to start by saying this work is top notch! that being said... There is absolutely no reason 4" pipe should have been used. i know its what the customer wanted. With all the transitions its going to make the exhaust gases not laminate. It would be different if the cat back was 4" but since it's 3.5", from the turbo should have been one step and then 3.5" all the way back.
@Skirk84
3 жыл бұрын
I think you will find if you have done your own testing that 4" straight out of the turbo even if only for the first 1meter of exhaust and then steeping down into a 3.5" or 3" gives massive gains over having a 3.5" or 3" straight out of the turbo. On a single turbo setup like this on a supra you can expect to see 250rpm faster spooling time, more throttle response and low down torque as well as gains over most of the rev range. Me personally I gained 30kw from 1500-4500rpm and then 40kw from 4500-8500rpm going from 3.5" all the way through to 4" dump and mid, meaning straight out of the turbo and then all the way to the cat or to the end of the transmission. The exhaust temperatures cool down very fast, for example you can see around 750C temps in the turbine housing, and then barely 200 degree's exiting the rear of the car. Meaning the expanded air condenses and takes up much less space as it travels down the exhaust. The thing he did wrong is going from 3" to 3.5" and then 4" a foot down the dump pipe, at this point he may as well kept it 3.5" for the whole thing as he has already ruined the largest part of the gain. 3.5" all the way is fine, but 4" dump will give noticeable gains. You will also find 3" limits your power to around 400kw, 3.5" limits it to around 600kw and 4" can do around 800kw before posing a top end restriction in terms of your catback size.

@TheNiters

I was also wondering about the same thing. I guess the exhaust will cool down as it travels down the downpipe and through the cat. Having a 4" cat means better flow at that point and it's possible that the temperature difference in the exhaust gases is enough to not really make the 3" cat-back too restrictive (since cooler air takes up less volume). It's also possible they had a 3" cat-back they really wanted to use and just said "Fuck it. Let's follow the dude's advice about the 4" downpipe, but step it down so we can use the cat-back we have". Would be cool to see if they did any specific thinking around this, or if it was a bit of an "accident".
@Skirk84
3 жыл бұрын
You don't need to match the whole exhaust, because the gas cools down significantly as it passes through the exhaust, therefore you want the largest diameter first to have an "equal" flowing exhaust, if you do 3.5" all the way through you will have your dump pipe being the first place of restriction and see good gains from stepping up to 4" straight out of the turbo even if only for 1 meter. 250rpm better spool, power increase over the whole rev range. and as EatSD mentioned a larger cat to reduce the amount of flow the cat loses is a great idea. 4" dump, 3.5" the rest of the way and 4" cat would be a good exhaust. What he has done with starting small and going larger is wrong and wont help at all, may as well have kept it 3" after that point. the only benefit might be having a larger area for the wastegate to be plumbed back into before the exhaust cools down.

Hello, Vibrant! I was wondering if you could use your influence to convince Tuxedo lifts to make some adjustable lift pads (screw up and down) and also to convince them to sell symmetrical arms (by themselves) for the overhead 2 post lifts. I have the same lift at home and its a little bit frustrating for certain cars to get them perfectly level with the lift pads and extensions provided. Additionally some baseplate extensions would also be cool for people in situations where they don't quite trust their concrete with the small baseplates these lifts have. Perhaps maybe even you guys could design some of these things?

Hey Mike! It is really just personal preference, both approaches get the same result when done with care. If it is your first time welding one, fusing the layers together may be easier and help ensure all the layers are captured in the weld. 1/16” filler is recommended to fill the fillet nicely and keep the puddle from overheating and risk the bellows plies from shrinking away from the weld.

So 3" v-band outlet to 3.25" 90 degree to 4" flex to 4" pipe then bolt onto a 3" catback? Why does this hurt hy brain so much? Is that really normal? How does it effect exhaust velocity?

Just a though, instead of welding the wast gate extension to the manifold, you could have welded a V-band clamp at each end of the extension… or was it to short? I don’t like welding cast due to risk of cracking.

In this cas, the cast if completely new and freefrom dirt and oil. And if ypu heat it up properly, it shouldnt be a problem

Hi James, I had considered going that route. Peter wanted to keep it simple (fewer clamps) and weld straight to the manifold. I was comfortable having done similar in the past on turbine housings and other manifolds so we decided to go that route. As Thanas mentioned, cleanliness is key and pre-heat does help to burn off any impurities like oil or other fluid that can contaminate the weld puddle. I use a 309L filler for 304 stainless to cast MS and did the same with this stainless manifold.

I dont understand the purpose of an EPA approved replacement catalytic converter being installed when theres only one. The car came from the factory with two, so it's still illegal regardless, unless I'm missing something. Am I?

@@TheDarkhorse82 back pressure and restriction is much of a difference when going 3 inch to 4 inch, were talking such a little amount that it wouldn't and shouldn't matter unless you are in racing; drag or drift.

Is there a reason that something like this couldn't be made out of titanium? I have a titanium exhaust from the downpipe back on my car, and I'd like to use titanium all the way from the turbo.
@VibrantPerformanceTV

It is possible, but there's a few reason we chose stainless. Firstly, Titanium is super light but also very expensive. Since Speed Academy isn't going for the lightest possible car but rather a street car, we chose Stainless to appeal to the masses. Secondly, we don't necessarily think Ti (1mm thick) is ideal for a downpipe due to the heat coming out of the exhaust housing. You may see premature failure, or cracks due to the material being so thin - just a warning.
