A large number of motorcycle enthusiasts these days are do-it-yourselfers and are very knowledgeable about the functioning of their motorcycles. Of course, this skill develops with the hobby, and later on becomes a passion that is necessary to truly immerse yourself in the motorcycle world, to get the most out of it. Still, a sizeable number of newbies to the motorcycle world need some type of introduction into the workings of motorbikes, especially over topics that go beyond the basics of maintenance and general care. Issues like the basics of brake calibration and understanding how  motorcycle exhausts  work are sometimes left undiscussed, unless one takes a crash course in mechanical engineering or automotive repair. However, there’s an easy way to go about understanding how motorcycle exhausts work. Aside from watching various videos online that attempt to simplify the process, here is a brief article on what you need to know in order to understand the ins and outs of moto...

Restless see-saw reasoning accompanies aftermarket modifications. One exhaust can extend performance and add throaty noise to the profile of the vehicle, but the change hamstrings fuel economy. A dizzying back and forth ensues as street performance or off-road aptitude is balanced against petrol mileage. Custom headers aid in this scenario by coming down firmly on the engine optimization side of the see-saw. The kit, as we all know, delivers instant aesthetic appeal, a chrome-plated, titanium coated killer look, but function has to match this aggressive profile or the owner only ends up with a better looking stock exhaust replacement . To really maximize fuel economy, performance headers are manufactured to a shape and size that improves engine “breathing.” A Brief Anatomy of Internal Combustion Breathing Miniature explosions drive engines, but spent fuel has to move away from the combustion area in order for the next burn cycle to occur. If this discharge routine didn’t happen, then ...

  The Magnaflow Mufflers name represents one of those elite brands you’ll come across from time to time. The American company produces high-quality exhaust components , is well-known in the aftermarket exhaust scene, and has earned the respect of performance enthusiasts. Earning a Reputation by Building Parts to Exhaustive Standards Magnaflow mufflers are manufactured from stainless steel and polished until they shine with a satin-silver glow. It’s likely that you’ll see the company logo proudly emblazoned on each alloyed housing due to the passion the exhaust manufacturer infuses into each of their products. Competently assured by these hallmarks, enthusiasts know that a Magnaflow product is more than a tough and good looking exhaust. Surface design virtuosity extends through the corrosion-resistant housing and down into the engine-optimizing core of the unit. Internal Performance Attributes Reputation is built on more than good looks and a durable housing. Magnaflow mufflers ...

  Car modification work is a huge and all-encompassing subject but it can be reduced to a handful of factors. You’ve bought that new performance auto with an eye on performance, which is the prevailing reason, but you’re also looking for a cost-effective route to adding even more muscle. There are engine enhancements and aftermarket augmentation kits by the barrel load, but, just as with a biological system, this exciting path can be realized even faster by just improving the “breathing” of the roadster. A customised and modified car exhaust system does just this, opening up the airways of the vehicle so it can burn fuel more efficiently and generate pure forward momentum, the kind of power that pushes you back into your seat as it growls with an animal-like roar. What You Get Isn’t Always What You Want Aftermarket enthusiasts often purchase a vehicle knowing just how far it can be pushed. They know the factory exhaust system is a utilitarian fixture, one that allows the car to p...

  Muscle Steroid-like power radiates from every contour of a newly customized muscle car, but the brawny outline needs to be balanced. The engine is burning fuel but pressure is being generated as a consequence of the combustion sequence. It’s the job of a performance exhaust system to keep this power cycle intact and energy-efficient by pushing spent fuel (gas) away from the engine. Like the physique of a finely tuned athlete, the engine has to breathe properly while creating energy. Here’s a few key tips for improving performance breathing, for choosing an exhaust system for muscle car enthusiasts. Good Enough Thinking Has No Place in the Project Instructional articles tend to gravitate towards the explanation of a product and how to buy the product on a budget, but this cost-effective philosophy will only hamper exhaust customization work. Buy the best muscle car exhaust on the market if possible. If you can’t buy the more expensive option, save for an extra month. The perform...

  There’s a well-known anecdote used in engineering, a fact-based narrative that talks of how the aerospace industry is the source of many of our current products. Time-proven by rocket scientists, ceramic coated headers represent a key technological development, one that was born in space-age rocket research, and one that transfers its benefits from these rocket components to our enthusiast exhaust system market, pushing performance figures to new limits. What are Exhaust Headers? Regular vehicles arrive fresh from the factory with standardized parts, components that don’t exactly set performance charts on fire. The engine and exhaust are efficient and road worthy but won’t set any land speed records or generate a grunt of noisy power. Exhaust headers are bolt on pipes, large-diameter tubes that are bent, shaped and mounted as an engine manifold replacement. The effect of this aftermarket addition is improved engine airflow and optimized engine performance through a dramatic re...

When car enthusiasts question lackluster performance gains, all eyes turn to factory-locked exhaust pipes, for this byproduct-releasing conduit represents an easy pathway to enhanced power. A   customised exhaust system   is called for, but is this an unobstructed pathway to performance? Let’s look at the   pros and cons   associated with such a major vehicle modification. Advantageous Performance Gains Mandrel bends partner with wide diameter pipes to release engine exhaust fumes quickly, which equals improved chemical energy utilization. Fuel efficiency is maximized. Next, power and torque ratios are fully realized, thus granting the horsepower gods’ unfettered access to the drivetrain. In short, engine byproducts are efficiently evacuated so that the engine can properly perform as intended. The Drawbacks Of A Buyer Beware Mentality A customised exhaust system tops the list of popular modifications, but first-timers tend to hesitate at this point, maybe because thi...
