He wants all the piping from the manifolds to where it joins up into one pipe to be equal distance, they're all also the same width all the way down.

You don't want uneven flow between the pipings, if you look at all the header/exhaust manifolds design, they're all equal lengths. What ЯX-8 is trying to accomplish is that he wants individual exhaust manifolds for each one to be as equal as possible. Even with the bends, it's still all mathematically the same distance from manifold to exhaust and all are of the same size so it should actually give some gains.

Say, if it's not the same size, the exhaust that meets up where the pipes are join together are going to be uneven. The shorter pipe's exhaust-flow will push into the longer pipe thus causing a small restriction. So with ЯX-8's design, the piping are all the same length and it prevents this from happening.
