Frequently Asked Questions
Our clients often ask us about performance mufflers. Here are answers to some of the most common questions:
A performance muffler is an aftermarket automotive muffler designed to reduce the sound and vibration of a car’s exhaust system. It is typically made from stainless steel or aluminized steel and its main purpose is to minimize noise while still allowing the engine to breathe freely, improving performance. Performance mufflers often feature larger diameter piping than standard mufflers, which allows for greater air flow and increased power. Many also feature additional chambers or baffles which disrupt the sound waves generated by the exhaust system, reducing the overall noise produced. In addition to reducing exhaust noise, performance mufflers can also improve gas mileage, as they reduce backpressure in the exhaust system allowing more fuel to be burned efficiently
Performance mufflers use a combination of perforations, baffles, and sometimes even chambers to manipulate the exhaust gas flow. Perforated tubing is used to create an intricate labyrinth of passageways for the exhaust gases to travel through. This allows for the sound waves created by the exhaust pressure to bounce off the walls of the passageways, gradually dissipating their energy and dampening their sound. Baffles are also used to further direct the exhaust gases and reduce sound levels.
Using a performance muffler can provide several benefits. First, they are designed to reduce backpressure in the exhaust system which can improve the engine’s power and torque output. This means more horsepower and better acceleration when you hit the gas pedal. Additionally, performance mufflers often come with an improved sound profile that gives your vehicle a deeper , throatier exhaust note. This not only sounds great, but it can also provide a slight boost in performance due to the increased air f
low and improved back pressure. Performance mufflers are also generally more lightweight than their stock counterparts, improving handling and overall responsiveness.
Selecting the optimal performance muffler for your truck, bus or coach—or any other heavy-duty vehicle—is an integral decision., as it can significantly alter both the sound and performance of your vehicle. The first thing to consider when selecting a performance muffler is your budget. Performance mufflers have a wide range of price points depending on the make and model you select. Additionally, there are a few different types of performance mufflers to choose from, such as high-flow and stainless steel. High-flow mufflers are designed for maximum airflow, which can give your vehicle an extra boost in power, while stainless steel mufflers offer improved durability and longevity.
Once you have determined the type of performance muffler you need, you must consider the specific make and model that best fits your vehicle. Consider the size, shape, and sound of the muffler before making your purchase.
