Re: O2 Housing Project
Sadly I will be in Canada for a race Saturday. Talk to Brian next time you come up, I would be interested to talk to you about some of the things we have been disscussing that's 2.4 related.
Dave figured out that with a square tube primary, you have more surface area than with a round priamary. Kinda like a kicker square solo baric sub woofer vs a round one. Using a square tube you can use a smaller primary for the those tighter areas and still have the same volume that a larger round pipe would use. He also figured out that with a tight bend in a round pipe the exhaust starts to "roll" over itself and begins to spiral, slowing the exhaust speed. With a square tube, it doesnt spiral and actually the tighter the bend the better. On the inside of the bend exhaust speeds will actually increase and draw the exhaust out.
He has huge patents on anything automotive related that uses a square tube for exhaust, etc. Currentley he works with chevrolet and ford using this technology and you will also see his square tube headers allot in dirt track racing. Look at a new corvette, cast square tube exhaust manifolds.
Any way, sorry to wander off the subject
