I am building a custom exhaust on my Countryman All4. Just behind the rear axles, the exhaust splits with a Y into 2 separate mufflers. My question is, after the Y, do the pipes leading to the left and right mufflers need to be equal length? I know when pipes are converging equal length pipes make a difference for scavenging and such but I don't believe that after they separate it is necessary? I feel it may just change the exhaust note a bit as the pulses will be timed differently exiting the pipes so it might have that Subaru type of burble. Your thoughts?
