What You Need to Know When Choosing the Right Exhaust System for Your Car

Page 1


Don’t Buy too Cheap You may be tempted to choose a Ford exhaust pipe based on the price alone. However, be forewarned that the majority of cheap exhaust pipes are made of cheap sound absorbing fiberglass materials and stuffing. These cheap variants may sound great when they are new. However, continuous exposure to engine heat will melt the fiberglass stuffing inside the exhaust pipe, eventually breaking it. This, in turn, causes the stuffing to get lodged in the pipe, creating a noisy ride while forcing your car to dish out more power to perform well. Therefore, when opting for an exhaust system for your car, choose branded ones even though they may cost more than their cheaper variants.


Don’t Buy too Big Any Ford exhaust pipe manufacturer will be able to tell you that you will need to stick to the factory size when it comes to purchasing a new exhaust system for your car. A bigger exhaust system will demand more power from your car for performance. Unless you have made other performance upgrades, stick to the factory size exhaust pipe for your vehicle, as is recommended by the majority of the Ford Exhaust pipe suppliers.


Stick to Factory Exit Configuration Many wholesalers of Ford exhaust pipe will recommend you stick to the factory exit configuration for your new exhaust system. You may be tempted to switch to a dual exhaust system from a single one and vice versa. However, that may not be a good idea in terms of cost, efficiency, and performance. Having a dual performance system for an engine that does not produce enough exhaust gases is a waste of money for sure. A dual exhaust system only works to its full potential in a vehicle that has dual exhaust paths for the motor and two catalytic converters on each side.
