"H" Pipe and Backfiring....

[TNVIPER]

Jimi (ROZ-SRT) had posted a thread a couple of weeks ago about installing an "H" pipe in his exhaust....it really sounded great and Jimi said it reduced backfiring quite abit. I had the "H" installed on my truck Friday...It is like a different truck now as far as backfiring goes...

No loud backfires and almost no popping between gears....I get a little popping when coasting in gear but none of the loud backfires that I had before.

There was little or no change in the sound of the exhaust but I was not looking to change the sound as it sounded perfect to me before...except for the annoying backfiring....I am running no cats with Magnaflow Catback...

Thanks Jimi!! I no longer grit my teeth when shifting gears now..

I meant to bring my camera to the shop and forgot. I had it installed about 6" in front of the muffler just after the point where the mid-pipes become vertical to each other...........Jimi has some pictures in his thread I believe..

opps i read back i see u did the h

I have a full 3'' exhaust on mine with the shorty magnafows:rock: I think they are about 14'' long:dontknow: It sounds awesome but it was just to loud under WOT and poped like crazy I went to a muffler shop that does alot of performance installs. He told me to put some glass packs right in front of the mufflers:dontknow:WTF? So I gave in and tried it It was the best $100 I have spent on my truck:rock: It sounds much better and no poping at all I can hear the Roe now without getting on it real hard WHOOP!! WHOOOOOP!!!!:rock:

NO matter what set-up you use....you can have your Tuner take out any popping.....:nurse: he just removes the fuel from de-cell.
Mine has never backfired.

How does the PCM/Tuner know the difference in decel and idle . . . ? :dontknow: In both instances the foot is not on the pedal.

Glad it worked out for ya bud!! (I can't wait to see ya on the 7th!!! :rock: :rock: )

Can anyone explain how it works? If I opt for no muffler, it seems it would not matter as much because with a muffler, the H would be sending the momentarily higher exhaust pressure to the other pipe but if they were both wide open heading back, wouldn't the high pressure just simply exit? Now I am thinking two glasspacks instead of straight pipes where the muffler is........ I will ask my exhaust guy what he thinks.
