RE: [DML] Delorean exhaust

["DMC Joe" <dmcjoe@xxxxxxx>]

Japheth,

We recently ordered the high performance header kit from DeLorean Motor
Company for one of our performance upgrades. If I'm not mistaken as long as
your not in a hurry they are available.

Hey all!  With all this talk about performance and the differences between
PRV's and straight Volvo engines, as well as oil and what not, I have been
spending quite a bit of time under the louvers to find some things out about
the uniqueness of this car's powerplant.

I am curious, and I know the veterans on the list have an answer, as to
whether or not there is a really good exhaust upgrade kit.  I am looking for
something along the lines of the DMCH stage engine upgrades but
unfortunately DMCH doesn't sell those systems separately, yet :D.

We all know that one of the biggest problems the PRV has as far as
performance is concerned is the extremely restrictive single exhaust system
that it has.  A muffler with two exhaust pipes means nothing if it only has
a single exhaust intake from the engine that is bolted to a very large and
restrictive catalytic converter.  The ability to clear exhaust from the
chambers quickly, greatly enhances performance.  I read by sticking with the
current muffler and just taking off the catalytic converter will boost power
by about 15-20 HP.

I hope this thread doesn't get as heated as some of the last ones.  
Remember we're all friends in the same boat...er car.
