Aftermarket Exhaust System: Exploring the Different Aspects Crucial for More Power
Ask any experienced automotive engineer and they’ll tell you: in spite of its seeming simplicity, exhaust system design is probably the most complex aspect of high performance engine building. It’s a science that requires a balance of flow dynamics, metallurgy and acoustics. And unlike virtually every other component of high performance engine design, exhaust systems can’t rely on sheer size to deliver maximum output.
The fact is, while there are a lot of aftermarket exhaust manufacturers selling really attractive exhaust configurations, there aren’t many that can successfully strike the balance needed to grind out the best performance. That’s why anyone looking at buying a high performance exhaust needs to be aware of these different aspects, as well as how they come together to make more power.
