Once again...condecend all you want but he's right. It's not about plugging the exhaust...you can free it up a little and still keep a good low end. In fact, most headers made for modern V8s are of the 4-1 design...short or long tube. It's not that they don't benefit from such designs, it's that people have spent so much time working on V8s they've had time to sort of tune the length, tubing diameters, and designs. I4s are, in the grand scheme of things, relatively new to the American performance market so people are still playing catch-up. Maybe instead of dismissing all of us who drive cars with V8s you consider that maybe some of us know our shit. I have yet to see you point out a single reason why a different way works better or why one of us is wrong.
