Why haven't you straight piped your car yet?

>>15280082
Only wankers do it

>>15280082
Why do most cars have exhaust tips faced down?

>>15280082
Because police and neighbors. Cutouts > open pipes.

>>15280082
Because I don't have a welder and I don't know a shop that will do it.

>>15280082
It would sound awful, bike or car.

Still has the cats, but other than that it is

>>15280206
Sounds like flapping ass lips, you live in a terrible state. 0/10

>>15280082

Did so to my first car.

Sounded like WWII bomber at highway speeds.

>>15280082
Because I'm not a boiracer faggot try hard mainly

>>15280082
I have no cats with a muffler. Loud is good but not when it sounds like shit. If I had an h-pipe I would straight pipe the exhaust but I don't because f-body camaros have shitty clearance. you had one job government motors

>>15280082
Because some engines require back pressure to run correctly.

>>15280082
Because my engine sounds like shit in mufflers, but I am catless tho

>>15280082
Because it adds no power and just makes your car loud

>>15280082
i dont like loud exhaust sound. id rather have more mechanical sound and such.

>>15280132
so water can't pool inside

>>15281312
>back pressure
Here comes the memes fellas

it sounds like a tractor.

>>15281357
Jesus christ. The face and license plate of pure autism

>>15281397
u mad bro?

If your cars considered a classic car and is 25 years old could you straight pipe it?

>>15281399
About not looking like a 40 year old pedo that lives in the projects? Not at all.

>>15280153
Yeah I'm with this guy. Cutouts give you best of both worlds. And I have no problem being that guy, but really only sounds good on v8s

>>15281415
Pedo? what makes you say that
And since when do projects have garages?
Projecting much?

>>15281357
You were on rcr right?

Because I don't have literal autism and I can understand that, while it sounds cool to my ears, the loudness of a straight piped engine is intrusive and unwelcome for 99 percent of the people around me.

How about driving hoodless with mechanical rockers, and a straight pipe?

clickity clack up front, burp bur burrr in the back

>>15280082
Not legal over here

>>15280082
because making your car sound like some old faggot's harley is gay as fuck

>>15280082
Because I drive a shitty corolla, nothing will make that thing sound good.

>>15281312
Sure, if you dd a 2 stroke. Retard.

>>15281357
Kiriller kar dude.

>>15280082
Because when I want to hear dem r6 cylindres I just let them scream at 5000 rpm. And it sounds great.
Would be annoying if they were loud while cruising.

>>15281516
my moped has straight cut gears. stock exhaust makes it sound very electric like.

>>15281661
Because you are a ricer.

>>15281699
How

>>15281701
You drive a straight piped honda, unless it's an s2k you're a ricer

>>15281711
That's not fair

>>15281406
Yes, because it'll be tolerable in a weekend car.

Because I prefer not to give myself a headache every time I drive more than 20 miles, I also prefer not to be a giant pain in the ass to everyone around me wherever I go, and finally because I prefer not giving any random cop a reason to pull me over and buttfuck me.

>>15281551
>Mechanical rockers
You mean solid lifters?

Also, you forgot the supercharger on a Gilmer belt, straight cut transmission gears, and zoomies.

>has less than 450whp
>straight pipes


kill yourself. I dont want to hear you slow shitbox sounded like a jet engine

>>15280082

Where are your driveahafts OP?

>>15281537

>>15281729
>You mean solid lifters?
Its hydraulic vs mechanical, that's the namature on these cars

>>15281763
I have to do it, fuck off.

>>15280082
Because I was busy straight piping your mom

>>15281770
>>15281770
Mechanical ones are also known as solid lifters. That's a matter of nomenclature indeed.

However, confusing rockers and lifters is completely wrong.

>>15280082
Pass through mufflers with long tube headers give your car a rich tone. That's why you don't straight pipe

The mechanical rockers are the kind that make ticking noises, and need need to manually adjusted for lift.

When it comes to these cars, what folks refer to mechanical rockers are pic related, top one is hydraulic, bottom is mechanical.

I actually DD a 2 stroke

>>15282038
No, it's mechanical or solid lifters that clatter against the rocker arms. You do adjust this by setting the valve lash on the rockers, but it's caused by the lifters. Hydraulic lifters remove this ticking.

>>15282177

I'm trying to find a replacement for my whole exhaust system on my citroen BX,
It's compromised of 3 parts:
-The tubing from the manifold to a horizontal silencer
-The horizontal silencer
-The end muffler

In the pic I've rounded down my choices for the part that goes from the manifold to the first silencer, is the thicker part of tubing I marked in red an expansions chamber? Why is it not present in the walker tubing?
What brand do citroëns OEM use?
What part will affect performance/sound?
Is this better/worse than straight tube?
Also I don't give a fuck about loud noise or emissions.

Can't do shit to my own car without an expensive engineer checking it.

Because my 4.6 vate sounds good with no cats and glass packs on an h pipe. The formula just has a glass pack and no cats, since LolGM made the clearance shit on 4th Gen for bodies.

holy shit it is. watch the video and look at the exhaust i thought he didn't lurk anymore

Illegal here my dude

Because it sounds like shit on road cars. No exceptions.

If I had any sensibility left from my childhood I would cut a hole in hood, and run the exhaust straight up. Being an adult is like eating bran flakes forever.

It is, ricer's are the sort of people who think a honda is anything more than a boring car for non-car people, and legitimate faggots.

>>15285730
That's not true. You're just shitposting

>>15281312
Only ones specifically designed to utilize the back pressure to its advantage. Bespoke exhausts specifically built for a certain engine and chassis are a good example. A Honda Accord wouldn't care.

>>15285834
Back pressure is used by manufacturers to lower the revs required for peak torque. Good for day to day bumbling around in traffic. However having a massive open exhaust is worse than an appropriately sized exhaust that promotes scavenging. Pipemax is a useful tool for correct calculations on exhaust sizes, and lengths.

>>15280082
>loud

but why

I did, briefly. The intent was just to be obnoxious because the car lends itself really well to that sort of thing but it turns out that straight-piped rotaries only hurt the driver's ears.

Muffler went back on just as soon as I had time.
