This may sound stupid but I was think this whale I was cleaning my engine bay out.

What is the diffrents in intake and exhaust? and I dont mean one sucks and one blows :P I mean the diffrents in heat and reasions what is used in making the pipes out of what they are (intake cast iron? exhaust ss).

My reasion is simple. Why can't you use exhaust ss pipe to make a intake? if you had the pipe and weilders that is.


stupid I know but I just wandering.


thanks.

Mage.

 

Which part of the intake are you taling about? None of it's made of cast iron, it's mainly plastic and aluminium.

 

What would be the point?

 

you can...

normaly alum is chosen as it's lighter and more shiny (bling ).

 

what's the point of changeing you exhaust? or port n polish a intake? or any mod? I guess if you running a high power engine that needs a better intake than stock intake manifold why not use exhaust pipe?

some babbling of mine hehe I really dont know what would be the "point" to be diffrent? or mabe better gains?


Mage.

 

I guess you could...but the reason that each material is used for that application is because SS can withstand heat well, etc.

 

Why go with something thats made for really high temps and explosions when you can buy something thats made for just cool air?

 

um... excuse me for being newb, but what's exhaust SS pipe? or rather, what does SS stand for?

 

NZConvertible: I'm talking about from the dymic chamber down saw this post made me start thinking:

before the tb you could use anything I know that but after? looking at that post just wandering how to use the stock tb but with a better flowing design lim or something like that. bah rambling again sorry.

ocelot: true but would it not figure in that if it's made for high temps and explosion than it would stay cool better/longer and if you are turboed (though I'm not) it can hold up to more psi?


Mage "rambling about an stupid idea thanks for reading!"

XuperXero: stainless steal

 

You think the dynamic chamber is cast iron?

Wow that thing would weigh a ton if it was...

 

o... well that makes sense...

btw, sorry about double post... :S

 

white_Fc: na I dont know what it's made of but most older cars I messed with they were cast iron or iron of some kind.


Mage

 

Ah ok, good, 'cause its not cast iron
it's cast aluminium.

Only reason _old_ cars had cast iron intake (and just about everything else) was for cost purposes. Thats all.

 

ya tell me about it the 54 chevy out side with it's inline 6 dang that was a bitch to get everything on. too bad it still does not pump fuel hehe.


welp bed now babbling off check back in the morning before work
