EVO 6 question

i just wanted to find out if there is a special side in which the exhaust suppose to be mounted? i am asking because i see some evo's with the exhaust on the right hand side and the majority have the exhaust on the left hand side...whats the reason for the different sides?

probbaly to get the exhuast as straight as possible they routed it to the right side....

so in "exhuast" terms the straiter the better?

better flow = less restriction on top = less resistance at higher rpm

Check where the fuel filler is mounted... usually the exhaust will be opposite to that... for obvious reasons...

Facing the Back of the Car
E4-6 - LHS
E7-9 - RHS
The 7-9 are straighter but the Exh pressure drop on the earlier cars in not much different, especially if its 3" pipe.
