While I admire all of your work and I do appreciate that the exhaust is not being built with performance efficiency at the top of the list, I must say that I've never been a fan of this type of exhaust.
On top of Darren's comments about long systems working better on these engines, the flow characteristics from having a short header leading to a weird shaped box containing weird shaped baffles and an exit through stubby tailpipes, none of which align with the natural flow direction must be awful. However as usual, it is all being built faultlessly and I'll repeat .. I do understand that performance is not the major requirement here. It still makes me whince a bit though. |

It's a neat piece of work for sure. I've had a few goes at designing one of those Q-D Style boxes myself, but it's hard to get the length in the box without it becoming very bulky and defeating the object of minimalizing the visual impact of silencers. They are loud and inefficient too, so I've just gone down the route of doing away with exhausts altogether.
