How Do Exhaust Systems Work?
Exhausts are the lungs of your vehicle.
These systems are responsible for routing exhaust gases away from the engine, improving engine efficiency, and minimising harmful emissions. A well-designed exhaust system can contribute to better power delivery, fuel efficiency, and sound quality.
Basic systems operate as follows:
1. The exhaust gases from the engine first funnelling through restrictive cast iron manifolds (which can be replaced with extractors).
2. The gases then continue their journey through the engine pipe and encounter the catalytic converter, transforming harmful gases into safer emissions.
3. The gases then pass through a resonator, commonly known as a centre muffler.
4. The connecting pipe takes the gases to the rear muffler, which helps to muffle the engine's noise by redirecting and cancelling out sound waves.
5. The final destination for the gases is the tailpipe, where they are expelled from the vehicle.
The Pacemaker Exhaust Difference
Pacemaker Exhausts are high-performance exhaust systems meticulously designed to optimise your vehicle's exhaust flow. But what makes them different from everything else?
- Mandrel-Bent Headers: Pacemaker pioneered the use of mandrel bending in exhaust headers. As a result, back pressure is reduced from the moment exhaust gases exit your engine.
- Increased Horsepower and Torque: The immediate improvements to exhaust flow lead to a noticeable increase in horsepower and torque, resulting in enhanced acceleration and power.
- Better Efficiency & Enhanced Sound: With exhaust gases travelling efficiently throughout your system, your vehicle delivers a more aggressive, cleaner exhaust note.
