Question about x pipe design and muffler
I’ve seen x pipes where the exhaust pipes basically run parallel to each other and then the pipes just bump into each other forming the x. Then I’ve seen x pipes that are a true x shape in design. Apparently both work just fine.
Due to my chassis constraints an x pipe is not possible, and actually the possible muffler locations are somewhat limited. So I’ve been thinking about a creative way to run the exhaust. I think I could possibly fit a transverse muffler, something similar in design to the attached picture. I would install it as I have marked it up, even though most manufacturers show the inlets being on the same end of the muffler. At first I thought this could cause excessive turbulence, but the more I look at it, I don’t see why this would be much different than running the inlets on the same end. Either way, the exhaust will cross paths in the x. Any thoughts on this? Thanks.
