5 cylinder exhaust manifold
liam.mccaffrey - 18/11/09 at 09:40 PM

what would a tubular exhaust manifold for a supercharged 5 cylinder look like?

5 into 1 collector?

Any ideas.

Here is mine.
5 into one.
Itīs hopeless to make them even lenght.

Surely thats ^^ one for a Turbocharger? Superchargers are driven off the engine so the exhaust for a supercharged car looks generally just like one for a N/A car (maybe a larger diameter to deal with the increased power)

itll look like the NA 5 cylinder one .

think of a pentagon , that should give you some idea of a collector design .

/ what he said - and a larger diameter than normal wouldnt hurt , since you will be stuffing a bit extra in there

i thought it would be similar to an NA one, cheers all

My bad.
For a supercharged engine a NA design is the best.
The 5 pipes must enter the collector in the firingorder.
If it is 1-3-5-4-2 the first one is no. 1 then clockwise no. 3 and so on.
This causes the gas to rotate helping the velocity up. Meaning more power.
