In general at what power levels can a 2.5" exhaust become a restriction?.
I can measure manifold EMP but I want to add a test point into my current downpipe as well to see actually how much back pressure I have in the exhaust.
Vehicle is a tuned VW T5 2.5PDvan, the exhaust on a van is obviously longer than say a golf.
I usually use a 4x4 dyno so I haven't been stood at the back while it's being dyno'd, yesterday we use a local 2WD dyno so I was at the rear.
All I can say is the exhaust made a similar rushing of air kind of sound like I have heard before on tuned petrol 1.8T's/2.0TFSI's when there exhausts get restrictive.
