LMAO!!!!! Deep???ya, your theories are definitely that!!!
I think I will clarify what I was referring to to help you understand, I was using lamen terms to describe it in the first post and maybe it wasnt the best word to use. The mixture that is being returned into the cylinder right before the piston closes off the exh port is a negative sonic wave, it is the same mixture that was previously burnt but may contain some more unburnt mixture as the 2 stroke engine is not clean burn design. Having said that,the signal strength of the pulse wave more less depends upon the angle and the diameter of the stinger pipe, and there is also the taper of the headpipe and center section diameter, but that brings in exh gas temp. thats a whole nother discussion. But with the stingers of these aftermarket pipes,usually are larger so you can hold the sled wide open across a lake. A large stinger takes heat out of the piston but reduces low speed response,power and torq. Its not as strong as say a stinger from a race pipe, a race pipe depending upon if its built for 500 ft drags or lake racing will vary in cone angle and stinger diameter. the smaller the stinger the stronger the negative pulse will become, but this sonic wave travels at the speed of sound or 1675ft per second. This sonic wave traveling back thru the pipe only merely returns the last bit unburnt fuel mix back into the cylinder just before the piston closes off the exh port, it hasnt added more volume of mixture, because the cylinder, ports and intake have not changed size, this returned mixture takes up volume and only so much more volume is able to be compressed without the aid of positve pressure from the intake side of the engine!
Without getting off topic, have you ever seen a viper or 2000 srx with black around the transfer ports? do you know why the black is on the bottom sides of the cylinders? its because the transfer port timing is too long allowing this returned exhaust mixture to be actually drawn back into the transfer ports and contamintaing the fresh mixture in the crankcase!!! just some more food for thought!!
