The amount of power you can get out of a car is directly related to just how quickly the engine can take in air and in turn expel exhaust gasses. Try thinking of the car as a human; if you can breathe easily and get air into your lungs and in turn into your blood very efficiently and expel carbon dioxide at a fast rate, you are far more likely to ensure that the blood has all the oxygen it needs and in turn works far more effectively.
The same applies to cars. However, what this does mean is that exhaust systems alone are not the only things to aid performance. The first step will be to get a better air filter, as this will help your car breathe in. Once you have this sorted, the next logical step is to ensure that the process of breathing out is as efficient as possible.
The right performance exhausts will help draw exhaust gasses away from the engine far faster and ensure that they do not get backed up. The reason that the majority of ordinary exhaust systems are far smaller is simply due to the fact that a smaller aperture will produce less noise. However, by increasing the size of the hole, the increase you get in performance is likely to be more than worth the small amount of extra noise, especially for those drivers for whom performance is key.
The smaller exhausts also slow down the air, which means it is far less dense, and in turn that you cannot get as much fuel in. The larger your exhaust, the more fuel you will get in and again, in turn, the far better the performance will be.
However, if you are looking at performance exhausts, it is important to ensure that you get the right air filter too, as if you have one half of your car’s respiratory system in perfect working order and the other half without the same focus, you will still not see the results you should be seeing.
