belive me, i'm the one who gets it. and when you take your first physics class, you will too. and temp is at the heart of the exhaust system. air temp, velocity, density, flow all are directly related. if you change one of them, they all change. the only way for a larger pipe to flow more air is if the source of the flow is also larger.

your air pump doesn't have to channel more air behind the constantly changing air it already put out in a contained path. once you contain the air flow (as in an exhaust) you can measure the pressure of the air flowing out.

yes and as a whole, i assume you mean from the ex ports back.
