Horsepower Loss do to Wet Exghaust
 
I am interested in any hard test data on engine horsepower from an engine tested with wet exhaust and then tested without wet exhaust.

The huge HP engines can't run wey because of reversion problems...

The dry ones are just LOUD and BAD A$$ sounding..lol:party-smiley-004:

How much do you think for a ~600hp NA engine?

Im searching for some data Ive seen.....

a good set of long tube headers is typically good for 25HP or more in an NA situation.

Its going to depend on a lot on the build, and exhaust manifold/header itself as well as the wet dry part.

High overlap long duration cams wil respond better to dry and be affected more.

The further downstream you mix- the less loss usually the realize.

Im looking, and should have bookmarked the data I looked at.

Thanks Uncle Dave,

I just need some hard/real numbers and the configuration/hp they came from. I'm talking ball park.

Thanks

I brought it up so the poster would know there are differences between the two.

Some guys arent aware of the drastic differences in pricing or effectiveness.

I am running Dana Torque Flow exhaust manifolds with #5 risers on a heavily modified 496 . These manifilds test within a couple of hp to the CMI sport tube headers with wet exhaust.
