Jan, daar is seker ander voorstelle ook, ek weet of het al gehoor die plek in Newlands so 1km anderkant die highway op Ontdekkers (Oos rigting) ken!

Hoor ook by Blom, seker hy weet ook van iemand in Kdp area?

Net 'n vinnige vraag... is jy seker die KZ-TE het nie die back pressure nodig nie?

IMO: if its turbocharged (petrol or diesel) the less back pressure the better as you do not need to scavenge your cylinders as they are being force fed by the 'charger.

A turbo also substantialy reduces the noise

on my Ssang Yong Musso turbo diesel I have a 63mm pipe from the turbo back and have only 1 63mm freeflow muffler at the rear.
it makes a nice throaty sound on accel but you can't even hear it while cruising

I paid R850 for mine with freeflow box but it was in mild steel as they had no stock :(
R1300 sounds like a bargain!

a stainles free flow exhaust will sound TERRIBLE
make it 63 mildsteel and ask Jan to give you a ( 300mm long resonator) RIGHT AT THE BACK!!!

Ek het gehoor 'n free flow sal ook 'n laer EGT tot gevolg hê. Ek het pyp grotes gehoor van 76mm :shock: . Enige kommentaar

IMO: any turbo car, the bigger the better.
it comes down to tolerence of noise
a friend of mine has a turbo diesel cruiser with a 76mm pipe and 1 freeflow box and it is quite.

as said here earlier the bigger the pipe the lower the EGT and that means you can increase the fueling saftely, increasing your power.
I beleive this is one of those cases where bigger definitely IS better

Maak seker al die buigstukke is lekker gelyk en verkieslik stadig. Nie 90Deg draaie nie.

Moet nie te veel soek van oversize pype nie, anders gaan jy nie genoeg druk in die pype kry om die turbo te spin nie.

Heinrich, ek verstaan nie jou opmerking nie. Hoe hoor die druk, hoe minder die lug vloei of verstaan ek dit verkeerd?

76mm is perfect for the 3CT - I was going to fit that to mine with the top mount intercooler from the 2.8 mitzi

I must humbly disagree, you do not need to scavenge on a boosted engine.
You only need enough pipe after the turbo to convert the radial flow of gas to axial, that can usually be acheived rapidly through a reduction in diameter or an abrupt change of direction (eg 90deg bend) as soon as possible after the exhaust housing

Stem nie saam met wat nie?? :blink: :blink: Ek gee raad om die turbo vinniger te spin, jy gee raad om die turbo te beperk. Wat is dan die doel van 'n free flow?

Jy skryf: "through a reduction in diameter", waarborg dit sal lei tot meer hitte wat binne die uitlaatstelsel bly, en met die KZ met sy reputasie vir blown gaskets is dit nie 'n goeie ding nie.

'n 90Deg draai lei tot swirling wat 'n buffer plaas op die spoed van die lug wat deur die draai kan gaan, want dit kan nie verder pyp af beweeg totdat dit self ge-swirl het nie. So, om swirling te vermy sit jy 'n gladde draai in, jy gebruik 'n pyp met 'n mindere diameter soos ek reeds genoem het om die relatiewe spoed deur die pyp en verby die turbo te onderhou.

Ander ding, as jy 'n massiewe groot pyp direk agter die turbo plaas het jy 'n vinnige verlies van druk, so jy kan nie 'n konstante werksverrigting op die turbo verwag nie.

Het al baie plaaslike vervaardigde uitlaatpype se ontwerpe goedgekeur op swaardiens diesel engines, almal toegerus met turbos.... :shh: Dan moet jy al hierdie goed in berekening bring, "swirling" is 'n praktiese metode om seker te maak dat jy 'n buffer in die stelsel bou om te verhoud dat die turbo te vinnig kan draai. As jy vinniger spoed op die turbo soek, dan verminder jy die swirling, maar jy moet steeds konstante spoed van lug deur die turbo verseker. Al waar dit bietjie anders werk is waar daar 'n ECU is met 'n variable turbo.

Mark, are you trying to start a war between Heinrich and myself??? :wth:

:D:

Blom, I fitted the 63 to my Ssang Yong Moose for exactly that reason. (see earlier post)
R850 bucks - 63mm mild steel from turbo back with a single 63mm freeflow box at the back
Nice sound, nice power

( and the budget shop I was at didn't have the tooling to bend 76mm or I would have done it :twisted: )
