  Anyone have any input on the design of an exhaust system? Primary size
(length and tube diameter)? Collector size? Muffler inlet and outlet diameters?

  What about individual pipe/muffler for each rotor without a collector
such as Ed Anderson uses? Is there a significant loss in power with such a
system since you lose the advantage of scavenging from the adjacent rotor?

  Any info will be appreciated.
