In today's video we will be talking about exhaust manifolds or headers. First we will explain what exhaust manifolds do and then we will compare OEM short cast manifolds and equal length tubular welded aftermarket ones, like my awesome turbo manifold from Weldspeed right here, to see how different designs and materials influence the performance of your engine.
So as the name very obviously suggests the exhaust manifold has the very simple task of providing a pathway for exhaust gasses. They connect your cylinder head to the rest of your vehicle's exhaust system. An exhaust manifold is always bolted directly to the cylinder head of your engine and when the exhaust gasses exist from the exhaust port the exhaust manifold is the first thing they see. So obviously the exhaust manifold doesn't actually DO anything, it's a passive part, or a collection of pathways through which exhaust gasses flow, but despite it's passive nature, the design of the exhaust manifold can play a very important part in the p
Now exhaust manifolds will be very different on naturally aspirated and turbocharged engines. This is obviously due to the fact that a turbocharged engine will have a turbo bolted to the exhaust manifold and then the rest of the exhaust system will be bolted to the turbine housing of the turbocharger. On a naturally aspirated engine the exhaust manifold will be connected directly to the rest of the exhaust system, without a turbocharger in between.
Now the design of the exhaust manifold mainly influences 2 things: Scavenging and exhaust back pressure and these two things then influence the power, torque, responsiveness and efficiency of the engine.
So what is exhaust Scavenging? In the simplest possible terms exhaust Scavenging is using the exiting of the exhaust gasses to ease the entry of the intake air into the engine to improve performance.
But scavenging can not occur the entire time the engine is running. It's heavily dependent on the camshaft specs of your engine but most of all it is determined by your exhaust manifold.
Now the scavenging effect is obviously very important for naturally aspirated engines because they depend on the pressure of the atmosphere to get air into the chambers. On a well tuned engine the negative pressure wave can decrease the chamber pressure by as much as 7 psi at a relatively narrow rpm band. On the other hand turbocharged engines don't really depend on the scavenging effect because they can add one or two atmospheres of additional pressure to the intake air over a broad rpm range which greatly improves cylinder filling as soon as the intake valve starts to open resulting in dramatic power increase. Another factor is valve overlap. Although valve overlap isn't necessarily all bad for turbocharged engines having too much of it is counter-productive because you're essentially wasting the work of the turbocharger. By having the intake and exhaust valve open at the same time for too long you're actually sending valuable pressurized intake air into the exhaust which means that you're wasting boost.
Now let's look at our cast and our tubular turbo manifold to see exactly how this play out in practice. Probably the first thing you will notice is the difference in length of the runners. The cast manifold has much shorter runners and in addition to this the runners are of unequal length which increases back pressure.
To understand how runner length influences back pressure we must understand that pressure inside the manifold spikes every time an exhaust valve opens. By making the runner longer we are enabling a more free flowing form of the runner and by making all the runners of equal length we ensure that each exhaust pulse takes an equal amount of time to reach the turbocharger.
The final difference between the two manifolds is the material itself. OEM cast manifolds are usually cast using nodular iron and most will have trouble resisting temperatures beyond 850 degrees Celsius for prolonged periods of time. Tubular aftermarket manifolds usually employ stainless steel. 304 stainless steel is a good and common choice while 321 stainless steel is an even better choice.
Stainless steel welded manifolds also have much smoother internal surface compared to the rough surface of cast iron. This of course helps increase gas speed and reduce back pressure.

Such a simple explanation with exceptional illustrations. This also makes it abundantly clear why 2-stroke engines require such precise tuning of their exhaust systems to function.
Somewhat simplified, for obvious reasons, but this was a really good overview not overlooking the 'horses for courses' aspects. Well done!
On a naturally aspirated engine, the exhaust header and intake should both be tuned to the same rpm range for max gains. Today some intakes have variable length runners for a wider peak curve and variable cam timing helps capitalize on that. When the intake cam and exhaust work together you get a sweet spot to upshift into.

@Snowman88 I've seen opposed piston engines where 2 pistons share the same bore. It was not something anyone would consider fast but it was unique. I like the cosworth that was made for Gordon Murray's T.50 and I love the Aston Martin Valkyrie engine. All I have now is a Yamaha R6, a supercharged 2zz-ge and whatever Tesla put in my wife's model y. They all move out pretty good. I'm not gonna lie, I could gap a countach with either of them. I've worked on motors that were so big they have their own 5 story buildings to live in. I came to work one one engine that had a plug wire arcing and it developed a gas leak (it was a natural gas engine out by st. Joseph's bayou in a place called east bay) well it blew the roof off the building and melted all the window frames. It was frightening to see the carnage. So glad no one was in there when it lit off. I worked on some cooper b250s. A man can fit in the cylinder sleeve. Max rpm maybe 500 if one were being foolish. It's a LOT of power at 350 rpm though. You want it to turn slow because it is also a gas compressor. A really big gas compressor.

Back in the 80's Yamaha introduced the EXUP system on their 4-cylinder high-performance bikes. It used a butterfly valve at the collector to change the timing of the negative pulse in response to changes in rpm. Later they also introduced variable length intake runners. To improve low-rpm intake velocity on single cylinder bikes they fitted two carburetors, one with a small bore, one large. The larger bore carb would only open at larger throttle openings.

Another part of the Scavenging is helping Evacuate the exhaust from an adjacent cylinder with pressure and back pressure. More so in a multiple y collector header situation. That typically pertains to NA engines. You did a great job considering you could make an entire movie just about headers and exhaust. Keep up the good work and keeping the masses educated.

Another thing to mention with turbocharged engines, short circuiting (excessive valve overlap) of charge air into the exhaust usually results in melted turbine wheels and exhaust valves, as the raw fuel and fresh air usually ignites as it blows past the red hot exhaust valves

Very well explained, I've always thought of an exhaust system as simply a "drain pipe" that is or isn't restricted by mufflers etc.
Such a good content! I am honoured to be able to watch something like this for free🙏
Learned more about turbo manifolds than ever 10 min. into this vid. Good stuff 👏 👍
There are so many variables on a N/A that the easiest way to determine the optimum configuration and dimension is to mount the engine on a test bench and make a modular telescopic manifolds with at least 8in of adjustability. Starting from a ball park dimension in the first place. Turbo manifolds seem more subceptible to pipe diameter, not pipe length, unless you are compeating and have cam shafts that allow the engine to rev. as high as a competition NA motor, as in the video. Well explained theory on a subject that has sent many a good man mad
Your explanations are very clear and understandable. Great work.
Very fascinating topic. One can get a sense how designing the exhaust system effects how an engine can run and feel and cost to operate. It really is an art.
I enjoy watching your videos, your explanation on everything is very well thought out and I learned a lot in this video as I am busy looking to upgrade my car's exhaust 😁

I'm learning so much from this channel. Thanks for the education.
Excellent ! That has to be the best explanation of manifolds that I've ever seen. (Another one of my automotive heroes is David 'the wizard' Vizard who goes into great detail, based on a very scientific approach.) The only thing I would add is exhaust gas momentum - at higher rpm the exhaust gases have a fast moving mass which pulls out the following charges from each cylinder. Again, as you mentioned, the manifold design and optimum pipe diameter are important, all depending on the engine and the spec you want. 👍 (PS: I can only comment on normally aspirated engines.)
About 20 years ago I had a truck and installed 3” dual exhaust, a programmer and an intake system. It made a small difference but once I installed headers, it made such a big difference. Now I’m old with a kid so my fun days are over.
one of the very best youtube channel I enjoy to watch!!! thanks alot
You spent a lot of time and effort on the video, graphics and mathematics, thank you !!!
With turbo motors, it's all about the temperature of the exhaust gases. That heat energy goes to power the turbo so cast iron log manifolds are good in that application. My BMW M2 has a simple exhaust log manifold and I'm happy with the overall performance.
After watching your videos i feel like I can build my own engine. Great job

Great explanation of the two manifold Vs. Headers! This is why I've subscribed! Thanks
Very clear, very well stated. I understood most of this, but you clarified some questions that I have had. Thanks!
You did miss one trick where cast manifolds are superior. Yes, stainless steel can handle higher temps, but the wall thinness makes it very likely to expand when heated, which often leads to cracking at the welded points where each tube tries to expand but is locked in place. In addition, each weld acts as a stress riser, meaning the force of holding the turbo and absorbing driveline vibration is concentrated in a small area unlike in a uniform cast material where load is distributed quite evenly. This uniformity and thicker overall wall thickness of a cast manifold makes it much more durable under repeated heat cycles, despite having a lower rating. I am also curious how the plenum effect, where exhaust gases collect before entering the turbo, might lead to improved balance of backpressure vs keeping each cylinder so separate. ITB's are much harder to balance for individual cylinders than an enclosed airbox for pressure and flow reasons

@d4a
2 жыл бұрын
I get what you're trying to say but it's a bit misleading. Assuming good welding technique, proper purging procedures and materials a weld's role as a stress riser is negligible. The same goes for each tube expanding separately, this really doesn't happen and the manifold expands and retracts as a whole under normal operation. The final point is the uniform structure of casting. I'm afraid castings most often have the worst and most irregular grain structure and exhibit porosity due to the nature of the manufacturing process. When it comes to wall thickness this definitely makes sense and with enough thickness a cast manifold can indeed be extremely durable but you need so much thickness that weight and bracing really becomes an issue. But this is why you see very thick manifolds on trucks where they are expected to last for a very long time. As to ITBs and balancing I'm afraid we're taking apples and oranges. ITBs will always yield superior power and responsiveness compared to a plenum due to somewhat obvious reasons (more air faster and more directly - all other factors being equal). Their balance is only really relevant at engine idle and has next to zero effect at WOT. An equal length manifold will always be superior to a log in terms of power due to reasons explained in the video. There really is no need to complicate the analysis by trying to include things that really aren't a factor in this.

I don't see the logic. Blocks are very thick and they never crack because of their thickness? I don't see how heating up of a thick material increases stress vs a thin one. I think that this debate is overall a moot point honestly. Neither casting nor welding guarantees durability and longevity. Both types are used by OEMs and there are extremely durable as well as very poor examples of both cast and welded manifolds. I believe what's far more important for durability is design, quality and vibration minimization.

Here in the UK there was a car called the Vauxhall Corsa B which had a 1.6 16v engine and made approx 108Bhp. There were two common mods people would do. One was a 4 branch free flow manifold, de-cat, and free flow resonator and backbox and the other was a "power box" where they removed the stock intake manifold and put in a "less restrictive" version The problem was, this upset how accelerated the air was in the cylinders at low / mid rpm and messed up the scavenging effect. On the dyno the mods took the power to approx 130bhp, but unless you were revving it's nuts off daily it didn't make a good daily driver.
Very interesting and high-quality video as always! I was thinking about how the pipes of an exhaust system join together. Like on a 4 cylinder you merge pipes together 2 by 2, sometimes all 4 merge together at the same time. I know it affects scavenging and back pressure as well. Would do a nice video subject to follow this one in my opinion.
Excellent explanation and presentation!

Also something to note, as you widen a runner it is possible to reduce the overall flow due to the resulting bends. Larger diameter pipes end up having sharper bends in a direction change over the same distance. Just something to keep in mind. Also going too big can have negative effects in other ways, like reducing exhaust speed.
As usual, great video!
Great video. You understand your concepts well.
As always very informative video
At the performance shop near me they choose short iron manifolds for their 2000 hp turbo ls applications. I asked why and they said you don’t want long manifold lengths as they reduce response and big hp cars have massive turbos where response is more important. They choose iron as it holds up to heat better than stainless as they’ve experienced stainless manifolds cracking in the past and the more heat you can retain in the exhaust the more energy you have in the exhaust side of the turbo. Ive also heard from experienced racing companies that for most average performance builds the diameter of the manifold tubing is much too large on most cars which is only reducing response and the amount of power you would loose from having a smaller diameter tuning is minimal at best as like this video explains the exhaust side of turbo is the restriction. For most of you with turbos making less than 600 hp you are honestly better off with small iron manifolds with smaller diameter tubing. The information from this video can be misleading but each application is different and on lower ho street car’s response and reliability is more important than a big hp ls race car.
So much to learn here, excellent video!

Just started viewing your content very informative and I appreciate your in-depth discussion or explanation of material you present I have been a gear head all my life grew up around the ice of all shapes and sizes and your content has taught me things I’ve learned wrong all my life or I thought was one way and you proved it to be different My question is if I decide to go ev and build it myself will a 5 spd trans be beneficial I’d like to try it if nothing else but I watch your video on ice vs ev and it got my brain turning instead of running the electric motor at max rpm mount it to a stick tranny and use gears just like a ice reduce rpm while maintaining speed what are your thoughts
So much info. Thanks for explaining all this.
I love watching these. Hard to find a “Turbos for Dummies” cliff notes!
Those headers are just a work of art. I wouldn't care if they worked or not. I did have Genie extractors on my six cylinder holden so I'm a fan anyway.
Thanks man. I was thinking about this topic. Kind regards from the Netherlands
