Is it possible to increase the speed of an exhaust system?

Is it possible to increase the speed of an exhaust system?

Dependant on the Vehicle Type and muffler, it is possible to raise boost levels and gain big power increases. Usually, the bend angle of the stock exhaust systems’ pipes are rather sharp because costs, noise reduction and low speed torque are focused on when design the system.

What makes a sports exhaust system so good?

The sports type exhaust systems usually focus on better exhaust efficiency; therefore, the pipe bend angle is smooth, and the silencer is a straight structure that a pipe routes straight through inside the silencer. The exhaust sound level tends to become higher, but lately silent sports type exhaust systems are increasing.

What is the silencer in a sports exhaust system?

The silencer is a bulkhead structure that diffuses exhaust with a partition inside the silencer. The sports type exhaust systems usually focus on better exhaust efficiency; therefore, the pipe bend angle is smooth, and the silencer is a straight structure that a pipe routes straight through inside the silencer.

What happens when you remove the muffler on a car?

By removing the muffler, exhaust resistance is radically reduced but engine torque is also reduces, adversely affecting launch and vehicle acceleration so it is necessary to have just the right amount of exhaust back pressure (resistance).

When do Harley air cleaners go out of stock?

Only 5 left in stock (more on the way). . Only 12 left in stock – order soon. . Only 5 left in stock – order soon. . In stock on May 10, 2021.

What happens when you change exhaust without intake?

Changes in temperature, altitude and air pressure are easily within this window. An exhaust change without intake is borderline. The ECM may be able to compensate, but you will inevitably be making a lean situation, worse. Changing intake with pipes puts you completely outside the window.

What’s the pressure drop on a stock filter?

Let’s assume that the stock air intake is really bad and drops pressure by 14 in. H2O (similar to pressure drop across the K&N filter when it is really clogged with dust). Under similar inlet conditions, the stock filter would yield the following:

Can a custom air filter cause an issue?

A custom air filter will not allow that much more air to go through the system to cause issues, even on larger engines. Usually you wouldn’t need to worry about remapping (unless you wanted to), until you start on the major mods (headers, heads, cam (s), etc). Stuff that really makes a difference. – Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2 ♦ Jun 10 ’15 at 1:40
