      This is actual math equations I am sure to figure out the optimum size of exhaust tubing.
      Unfortunently it has more to do with displacement then with horsepower
      Not really.
      A turbo 4 cyl car can use a 3" exhaust.

      What do you mean there's no turbo?

      Some even have a 4". But he is talking about N/A engines. The turbo provides all the backpressure needed. Hell, I have seen people go with a 4" downpipe straight to the ground. It helps spool the turbo.

      Ok a s/c.
      The point I am making is that if you make more hp you need to flow more air and to flow more air you will make more hp until a certain point where the exhaust no longer is conducive to scavenging. Same thing w/ an intake. There is a tube for a reason. Open TB sucks for intake velocity.
