Updated standard of exhaust system

An aftermarket performance exhaust can free some of the power in your engine. These systems allow for a quicker, more efficient path for exhaust gases to escape. This means your engine "breathes" better, so spent fuel and air exit the combustion chambers faster with less noise and fuel.

Performance of exhaust system

It might not add extra power, but a new exhaust system will improve your car's performance. By improving the efficiency of the car's exhaust system, you can increase your car's power. ... However, they also curtail the car's performance, by forcing the exhaust gases to exit through a smaller bore, or hole, than is ideal.

An extremely large exhaust pipe will actually cause SLOWER exhaust flow, and decreased performance. ... The general rule of thumb for exhaust systems is, as we said 3-3.5in for 250-350whp, above that 4″ exhaust is the right size, but that's about as big as you want to go, even at the 400whp-500whp level. The free flow of exhaust out of the back of the car can make your engine run smoother as well. If you use your car on the track, the aftermarket exhaust can reduce weight. Add the weight reduction to the power increase and the system easily seems worth it.

Horsepower of exhaust system

Adding an aftermarket cat back exhaust can provide several benefits, the first of which is more power. ... An increase in fuel economy is often experienced after installing a cat back exhaust system. This is the result of the engine not having to work as hard pushing exhaust gases through the piping.

Replacing your car's muffler alone is not enough to open up the restrictive exhaust system and allow the extra airflow that increases performance.

Fuel efficiency of exhaust system

Low Fuel Economy: Your engine needs a working exhaust system to perform correctly. If your exhaust is leaking or otherwise damaged, you will experience reduced gas mileage. ... If there's a significant leak in the system somewhere, it reduces backpressure, and can negatively affect your engine's performance.

The simple process of redirecting the filter to draw cooler air is good for a horsepower gain of about 5 to 20 ponies in most cars. It might even improve your fuel efficiency, and it'll probably make your engine sound better, too.

The life span of exhaust system

The life of an exhaust system is extremely difficult to determine. Many factors are involved, including regional climate, the type of driving and whether the system is single or dual.

Dual exhaust system

A dual exhaust system uses two exhaust pipes to carry out the engine exhaust. It usually consists of a muffler to minimize noise, a manifold to collect exhaust, and a catalytic converter to make the exhaust less toxic; when installed at the back end of the car, a Y pipe can help create a dual exhaust system with a tailpipe on each side of the car (for an often sought-after sporty look). If you have dual exhaust tips to a single exhaust, your vehicle will look great, but it's not doing anything to increase power. Basically, a dual exhaust system allows the engine to breathe better creating a more complete combustion cycle from the engine. ... A true dual exhaust system provides each head and exhaust manifold with its own separate exit allowing double the amount of exhaust to be forced out of the engine. Dual exhaust will give you a significant power increase because of the engine's ability to breathe better. Thus, if you are trying to increase horsepower, dual exhaust may be worth the cost.
