Sorry for the late reply..... But I agree - there's plenty of room to make a working exhaust system.... Auto mfr's just optimize as efficiently as possible as it's a big difference for them. Telling the muffler shop to move a hanger over a couple inches isn't going to change the cost of a custom job. The muffler shop also won't be optimized like the mfr who optimizes for more than power and torque (two things a corner shop guy is likely more concerned with)
And that said... I didn't see any dissuade anything over nodes/anti-nodes. I mean, really, look back... The last sentence of john's post was something like "Will it matter.... no"
And really, nodes aren't scary - it's a relatively simple concept to grasp and is fundamental to a great deal of design for intended for public use
The scary part is anti-nodes - that's where things can fail horridly :/
