okay I have a header, dp and 3" exhaust frankly I think I don't have much backpressure for my mods. Is there a way like putting an extra resonator or something in the mix to obtain more back pressure? Or maybe a 3" inlet to a 2.5" outlet muffler? I REALLY don't want to get a new exhaust put on..

switching to a 2.7" and corresponding mods soon, but right now I have a 3" pulley and 42#

 

Why would you want more back pressure? With a 2.7, you should AVOID back pressure!

 

put a potato in your exhaust tip.

 

don't worry about it since the 2.7 is going on. i hit 273/250 on a 2.8 and full 3" header back. a 2.7 will produce great numbers. what do you mean by "corresponding mods" though?


but if all else fails. potatos work great.

 

u dont want back pressure dumb ass

 

Is an answer like that really necessary?

 

yah welll you are on cobaltss.net.... people are dicks on here

 

yes, yes it is

 

try an exhaust tip baffle i used to see mustangs with them all the time... or you can just leave it be because there's nothing wrong with it

 

Just jack your car up by your exhaust.........

 

Lol ya i know all too well

 

The level of idiocy in this thread is amazing.

In switching to a 3" exhaust system he lost a lot of low end torque, partially caused by getting rid of the backpressure in the system. Huge exhausts are great for WOT, terrible for daily driving.

Switching to a 2.7 will help this a lot. I'd say wait for that before you go doing other **** to your car.

 

keep the 3" you don't want to go smaller if you plan on going bigger in the future

 

This is what I meant! Thank you! I don't know why others have to be assclowns about it. The thing is I do not do burnouts like I used to. My high end 40+mph is great , but it takes a bit longer to get there. Plus my exhaust backfires when I shift? normal?

Oh and by the way, what is the point of calling me a *******? I would like you to tell me that in person and we can see how your face feels afterwards

corresponding mods= injectors + tune (some people are not so bright and think I might just throw a smaller pulley on)

 

If you're talking about the popping noise, that's normal and nothing to worry about.

 

Auger insert from jegs
Cut 1/3 of it off, tack weld in pipe
Works great

I would think that would be better for racing. I know with my car i gotta lug it hard out of the hole or i just spin like a bastard

 

no. the reason i asked is because you don't have your mods listed.

isn't WOT when you want all your performance anyways???

as far as a 3" not being able to provide enough trq...idk about that

 

jokes are ok. what is wot? I am not a mechanic. my best guess is w.hile o.n t.hrottle.

 

back pressure on a forced induction car is not your friends you want to open it up so you can throw a smaller pulley or more boost on it.

 

Lol close, wide open throttle

 

whats the point huh lmao if i was in chi town i would call you what you are a ******* to your face and you wouldent do a dam thing about it you little 16 yr old ****

yea there are ********* on here and look why stuid questions like this and the same questions all the time so go figure why

 

Obviously, but since most of us only go race a couple times a hear, it makes sense that he'd look into improving the daily drive over ***** out performance. If I could swap my 3" out for a 2.5" system at no loss, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
Didja miss the part where I said low end torque? We're talking daily driving scenarios - below about 2500 RPM my car felt slow as hell compared to the stock exhaust until I threw the 2.7 on it.

 

yeah but your bragin about your trap speed in your sig

 

I knew I needed that ****!! the stupid old guys at the shop called it a "whistler" and convinced me not to put it in!,

quite ethuggin it country boy, not your style. Go ahead drive your tractor up here... don't forget your cousin and half a deer... now please shut up and let us men talk about back pressure and how it is most likely essential for low end power. 16? lol. give me a break, rednecks make me giggle.
