i'm trying to gather flow numbers for different engine just to see how they compare. now when i see most flowbench numbers they do the intake and exhaust separately and at different lifts. is this to the entire (intake or exhaust) side of the head at the same time? or do they do each cylinder individually? some people also just say things like "this head flows X amount of cfms" so is that intake and exhaust added together or them just opening up the intake and exhaust valves at the same time and seeing how much flows through the head?
some numbers i've stumbled across are as follows (not to be taken as fact) [taken at 28" of water]
stock-ish 1g head [ 250cfm@.400 lift]
dsm race head [328cfm@.450 lift]
SHO [244@.400 lift]
b16 [250@.500 lift]
S2000 [330cfm@unknown]
z32tt [225intake/178exhaust@.400
mk4 GTE head
[[[[.100" intake 81 exhaust 65
.200" 155 122
.300" 199 145
.400" 207 151
.500" 215 152]]]
now how does the GTE head read compared to the others? do i add the values for intake exhaust at .500 lift or what exactly. it looks like a lot of people only look at intake numbers, but i could be wrong
feel free to add any realistic numbers you find or if you can provide some insight.
