Notice he didn't disagree with me, kids.

When I roll up this summer... would you like some help with assembly? You can probably field a couple of good hands to wring things into shape for ya, and I, unlike Joshrex, don't want to touch your kid.

Could you just tell me what the ---- your space aged manifold technique involves? Simply say "It's made out of cottage cheese, it has a bump right here that does this" ect....

All of this for an english explanation from a sloppy redneck is grounds for a headlock at the TC meet.

Haha.

Ejectors/CD nozzles brought rocket engines from 2% efficient to 67+% efficient by enhancing actual thrust aka kinetic energy. Keep in mind diesels are only 40% efficient, and gas engines in the 30-35% range. What they do is choke down on flow to increase velocity, and then as the nozzle expands it accelerates flow into the superconic while dropping temperature. It's an anti-reversion gizmo, as well as a way to make more efficient use of the kinetic energy that turns the turbine wheel.

So yeah, pairing cylinders in a split turbine manifold helps spool really big, fat turbos, but ejectors should up the efficiency of energy transfer to the turbine wheel to take things to the next level.

You ever see one of the $$$$ headers that, after the collector, choke down on the pipe diameter and then open it back up? Same thing, only in a ****** no power naturally aspirated application.

Anti-reversion.




I guess this is what your speaking of?




See how easy it was with a picture? :P

Ok, so where are you suggesting to put these? And with a split turbine housing, how do you ensure that two cylinders go into one side and two go into the other? The collector would merge all of them.

No, not the silly big rig flapper door.

That sucks as a picture, looks more like a flared pipe than a convergent-divergent nozzle.

How about you click the link on the word "ejector," located above, because there are pictures there...

In the manifold? Duh?

I hope you aren't seriously asking me that.
